About:
Tzdiff is a command-line utility that calculates and displays the time difference between a specified timezone and the system's local time. It simplifies scheduling and coordination across timezones by providing clear, immediate output directly in the terminal. This lightweight shell script is ideal for users who need quick time conversions without leaving their CLI environment.

Key Features:

Calculates time difference between any timezone and local time
Lightweight shell script with minimal dependencies
Simple, concise CLI output for quick reference
Supports standard IANA timezone identifiers

Use Cases:

Coordinating meeting times with international colleagues
Scheduling remote server maintenance windows
Quickly checking time offsets for global services

Alternatives:

date – Built-in command can convert time but requires complex formatting and lacks intuitive diff display
worldtime-cli – More feature-rich but heavier dependency on Python runtime
