Consult the following link to learn how to make a plugin reader. Once
compiled -- assuming you already have PYTHON enabled in your paraview
build -- your own reader will automatically be active as
servermanager.sources.MyReader

http://paraview.org/Wiki/Plugin_HowTo

Running pvpython for example, you may type the command
servermanager.LoadPlugin("/path/to/your-plugin/libMyReader*.so") and
your plugin will be loaded.
