448:    Input Parameters:
449: +  name_solver - name of a new user-defined viewer
450: -  routine_create - routine to create method context

452:    Level: developer
453:    Notes:
454:    PetscViewerRegister() may be called multiple times to add several user-defined viewers.

456:    Sample usage:
457: .vb
458:    PetscViewerRegister("my_viewer_type",MyViewerCreate);
459: .ve

461:    Then, your solver can be chosen with the procedural interface via
462: $     PetscViewerSetType(viewer,"my_viewer_type")
463:    or at runtime via the option
464: $     -viewer_type my_viewer_type
