rktime.conf - Man Page
configuration file for rktime (1)
Description
The file rktime.conf contains variables to override default settings of the rktime utility. The file rktime.conf is optional. Typically this would be used to change the default set of timezones displayed.
rktime.conf is located in the /etc directory.
The file must only be owned by root or bin, must only be associated with group root or group bin. It should not have others write or others execute permission set.
To set a new set of timezones to display, a line like the following should be set
ZONES="US/Pacific US/Eastern UTC Europe/London"
rktime also provides for users to have a file named .rktime.conf in their home directories. A user's individual settings override the global settings. The format of .rktime.conf is the same as rktime.conf.

WEEKDAY_COLOR=$GREEN
