[vtkusers] visualize the registration example in ITK user guide

[Bryn Lloyd]

ITK can write VTK image files. The example you mention uses a
itkImageFileWriter, which will write a vtk file automatically, if you
set the filename to foo.vtk

You can download paraview and slicer in pre-compiled form. So all you
need to do is load your file in one of these programs.

BTW. I am sure you can load *.mhd (= metaheader) files in slicer
directly, without converting it to a *.vtk file.
