Hi, I just tried this with texlua 1.10.0:

-------------------------------------------- local function time_of_day (TZ) os.setenv('TZ', TZ) local time = os.gettimeofday() print(os.date('%c', math.floor(time))) end

time_of_day ('America/New_York') time_of_day ('Europe/Paris') time_of_day ('Asia/Tokyo') --------------------------------------------

It seems that os.setenv() is only executed once and all results are in Eastern Standard Time:

Fri Feb 21 16:37:13 2020 Fri Feb 21 16:37:13 2020 Fri Feb 21 16:37:13 2020

When I call "time_of_day ('Asia/Tokyo')" first I get

Sat Feb 22 06:39:46 2020 Sat Feb 22 06:39:46 2020 Sat Feb 22 06:39:46 2020

Is it possible to fix this behavior?

hm, just to be sure... how do you run your example ?

texlua ./timeofday.lua I also tried texlua --shell-escape ./timeofday.lua Same result.
