GMT time to local time, according to timezone and summer/winter time.

[David Joseph Bonnici]

Hi, is there an already made function , or some easy method, where I can
convert a gmt time to local time or vice versa. It should also account for
Summer and winter time 1 hour differences, apart from that it should support
also timezones.

Any suggestions before I dive in the coding.

There are most certainly a few CPAN modules.

Even if I'm not sure, two modules I'd check out are DateTime and
Date::Manip.
