-# `luatz`
+## `luatz`
 
 Requiring the base luatz module will give you a table of commonly used functions and submodules.
 
 The table includes the following sub modules, which have their own documentation:
 
-  - `parse`: Parses common date/time formats
-  - `timetable`: Class for date/time objects supporting normalisation
+  - [`parse`](#parse): Parses common date/time formats
+  - [`timetable`](#timetable): Class for date/time objects supporting normalisation
 
-
-## `time ( )`
+### `time()` <!-- --> {#luatz.time}
 
 Returns the current unix timestamp using the most precise source available.
-See `gettime` for more information.
+See [`gettime`](#luatz.gettime) for more information.
+
+
+### `now()` <!-- --> {#luatz.now}
+
+Returns the current time as a timetable object
+See `timetable` for more information
 
 
-## `get_tz ( [timezone_name] )`
+### `get_tz([timezone_name])` <!-- --> {#luatz.get_tz}
 
 Returns a timezone object (see `tzinfo` documentation) for the given `timezone_name`.
 If `timezone_name` is `nil` then the local timezone is used.
+If `timezone_name` is an absolute path, then that `tzinfo` file is used
 
 This uses the local [zoneinfo database](https://www.iana.org/time-zones); 
 names are usually of the form `Country/Largest_City` e.g. "America/New_York".
 Check [wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones) for an example list.
 
 
-## `time_in ( timezone_name [, utc_ts] )`
+### `time_in(timezone_name[, utc_ts])` <!-- --> {#luatz.time_in}
 
 Returns the current time in seconds since 1970-01-01 0:00:00 in the given timezone as a string,
-(same semantics as `get_tz`) at the given UTC time (defaults to now).
+(same semantics as [`get_tz`](#luatz.get_tz)) at the given UTC time (defaults to now).
