Is there, somewhere, a list of viewers and their names (for the purposes
of this script)?
I am assuming that if I want to ImageMagick (for example), there would
be some shorter name - such as 'magick' - and it would be lower case .

It occurred to me that I could edit the PIL/ImageShow.py, replacing ‘xv’
(in five places) with the utility of my choice and using ‘executable’ as
the command.
Or, is this just not done?
No, this tends to become a maintenance problem. Instead write a little
module of your own
from PIL import ImageShow
class MyViewer(ImageShow.UnixViewer):
def __init__(self, command):
self.command = command
def get_command_ex(self, file, **options):
return (self.command,) * 2
ImageShow.register(MyViewer("gwenview"), -1)
(replace "gwenview" with your favourite viewer) and import it before using
Image.show().
