Would this work for America/Indiana/Knox (note especially the -5:00
on the second-to-last line)?
Zone America/Indiana/Knox -5:46:30 - LMT 1883 Nov 18 12:13:30
-6:00 US C%sT 1947
-6:00 Starke C%sT 1962 Apr 29 2:00
-5:00 - EST 1963 Oct 27 2:00
-6:00 US C%sT 1991 Oct 27 2:00
-5:00 - EST 2006 Apr 2 2:00
-5:00 - CDT 2006 Apr 2 3:00
-6:00 US C%sT
