To create an automatic viewer you just have to put your process in viewers/automatic category (i.e. subdirectories of processes directory). There is one restriction for viewer processes, they must have a ReadDiskItem as first parameter and this parameter must be the only mandatory parameter.

If you do that an "eye" icon will be available for Read/WriteDiskItems of the corresponding data type.
