My modeline was displaying the local time (not UTC time) and appending the UTC timezone offset, which was confusing me. When it was `00:03` in London, my modeline would read `00:03+01`. One way of interpreting this is that it's `00:03` in London and the `+01` is a reminder that I'm one hour ahead of UTC. However, I was reading it as though it was `00:03` UTC and thus `01:03` in London. I had to set `display-time-string-forms` instead of `display-time-string` to pass the `t` argument to the `ZONE` parameter to indicate that I'd prefer to use UTC time and not local time when expanding the variables. |

Emacs
Emacs is one of a handful software projects that I highly value. I consider it
as central to my workflow as git and nix.
Installing
If you already have briefcase on your local file system, run the following
from the top-level briefcase directory:
$ nix-build -f . -iA emacs.nixos
