Hello,

You can either:
- add the code directly inside Gwenview, and register your format in
Document::Document()
- install your image format as a Qt image plugin. If I am not mistaken, this
means installing your .so in $QTDIR/plugins/imageformats/. It should then be
picked by every Qt3/KDE3 applications.

Hope this helps
