This <A HREF="../Viewer/PetscViewer.html#PetscViewer">PetscViewer</A> can be destroyed with <A HREF="../Viewer/PetscViewerDestroy.html#PetscViewerDestroy">PetscViewerDestroy</A>().
<P>
If a multiprocessor communicator is used (such as <A HREF="../Sys/PETSC_COMM_WORLD.html#PETSC_COMM_WORLD">PETSC_COMM_WORLD</A>),
then only the first processor in the group opens the file.  All other
processors send their data to the first processor to print.
<P>
Each processor can instead write its own independent output by
specifying the communicator <A HREF="../Sys/PETSC_COMM_SELF.html#PETSC_COMM_SELF">PETSC_COMM_SELF</A>.
<P>
