Can you get Timezone info. like EDT, EST etc. from oracle sys date/time functions?

There are tonnes of functions that return all kinds of information about date/time except the above in Oracle documentation. Can anyone say if it is possible to get this information. Is there an additional product that will let you hook into os function calls(date on OS does return this 3-letter code for timezone.)?

thanks,
