Inconsistent format of data files?<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>Hi,<o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>I’m working on compiling the time zone data into an XML file
for easier handling in a program. I noticed some inconsistencies in the
format of the files versus the description in zic.8.txt. For example, in
the latest version in Africa on line 93 there is an extra tab at the
beginning. Can anyone confirm if this? I’ve attached screenshots of
what I am seeing.<o:p></o:p></P>
