def viewer.viewer	(		infile = '',
			displaytype = 'raster',
			channel = 0,
			zoom = 1,
			outfile = '',
			outscale = 1.0,
			outdpi = 300,
			outformat = 'jpg',
			outlandscape = False,
			gui = True
	)

View an image or visibility data set

examples of usage:

viewer
viewer "myimage.im"
viewer "mymeasurementset.ms"
viewer "myrestorefile.rstr"

viewer "myimage.im", "contour"

viewer "'myimage1.im' - 2 * 'myimage2.im'", "lel"


Keyword arguments:
infile -- Name of file to visualize
        default: ''
        example: infile='ngc5921.image'
        If no infile is specified the Load Data window
        will appear for selecting data.
displaytype -- (optional): method of rendering data
        visually (raster, contour, vector or marker).  
        You can also set this parameter to 'lel' and
        provide an lel expression for infile (advanced).
        default: 'raster'
        example: displaytype='contour'

Note: the filetype parameter is optional; typing of
data files is now inferred:
        example:  viewer infile='my.im'
        obsolete: viewer infile='my.im', filetype='raster'
the filetype is still used to load contours, etc.
