Ron Stone f125a8b892 Remove spurious escapes (r8,dsR8) 
This change addresses a long-standing issue in rST documentation imported from XML.
That import process added backslash escapes in front of various characters. The three
most common being '(', ')', and '_'.
These instances are removed.

  • To change the timezone, use the following command syntax:

    system modify --timezone=<one_specific_timezone>

    For example:

    $ system modify --timezone=Asia/Hong_Kong

    Check that the timezone name you are using is installed in /usr/share/zoneinfo.

    After this command is executed, a several seconds delay is expected before the configuration is applied to the system.
