I agree that PDT should say "Pacific Daylight Time" but whoever wrote this section refered to both ..DT and ..ST as "Standard Time" for some good reason.I assumed so I followed convention. It came up in an app I was running as a fixme since we switched to std time today and is used by TIME_GetTZAsStr(). If it appears beneficial, I'll be happy to change all the ..DT references to "Daylight Time" and resubmit.
Not quite every place; MEST says daylight. It appears to me that the only place this is used is the function TIME_GetTZAsStr(), which appears to only be used in RtlQueryTimeZoneInformation(). So the question would be, what does that function return on Windows (and perhaps, does any program care).
