Hi everybody,

Here is a simple shell-script, that can help converting between UTC and
local time, provided you have the correct local time in your computer.
(Make it executable and put it in PATH. I put it in ~/bin)

-----
sudodus@ssd-grund ~ $ utc2local
Usage:    /home/sudodus/bin/utc2local [utc-time]
          /home/sudodus/bin/utc2local 'YEAR-mm-dd HH:MM-utc'
Example:  /home/sudodus/bin/utc2local '2015-11-22 18:30-utc'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Current UTC time = 2015-11-13 11:54

##### For the next meeting (the example is for my CET) #####

sudodus@ssd-grund ~ $ utc2local '2015-12-09 19:00-utc'
Usage:    /home/sudodus/bin/utc2local [utc-time]
          /home/sudodus/bin/utc2local 'YEAR-mm-dd HH:MM-utc'
Example:  /home/sudodus/bin/utc2local '2015-11-22 18:30-utc'
----------------------------------------------------------------
  UTC time = 2015-12-09 19:00-utc
Local time = 2015-12-09 20:00
----------------------------------------------------------------
Locale: Wed Dec  9 20:00:00 CET 2015
sudodus@ssd-grund ~ $
