DST and appointments in other timezones

2019-11-13 Thread Leo Gaspard
Hello world, I have appointments that are scheduled on timezones other than my computer's. Does org-mode support setting that? It looks like timestamps don't support adding a timezone, so I'm wondering whether there's a reasonable way to use s-expressions in timestamps for this? Well, ideally
