    \class QPictureFormatPlugin
    \brief The QPictureFormatPlugin class provides an abstract base for custom picture format plugins.

    \ingroup plugins

    The picture format plugin is a simple plugin interface that makes
    it easy to create custom picture formats that can be used
    transparently by applications.

    Writing an picture format plugin is achieved by subclassing this
    base class, reimplementing the pure virtual functions keys(),
    loadPicture(), savePicture(), and installIOHandler(), and
    exporting the class with the Q_EXPORT_PLUGIN() macro.

    Returns the list of picture formats this plugin supports.

/*!
    \fn  bool QPictureFormatPlugin::installIOHandler(const QString &format)

    format.
