Thank you. I am new to these "toolkits", but this gives me some
clues that I can follow up.
Regards,
Jack

This is a general question, independent of the particular context
of my program.
You've already been given all the best info: If you want to work with images,
and you want some control over that, then use a gui toolkit. Your choices:
Tk, WxWidgets, GTK, QT and then it gets harder.
If you want to open a given image file without much control, then simply
fire-off a call to your o/s to open file 'X' using program 'Y' with popen or
subprocess (see Python docs).
To close program 'Y', make sure you keep its process-id and then use similar
means to call kill. Some image viewers may even replace the last image with
the new one, so you can leave it open.
Think 'scripting by pipes' if you don't want to use a gui toolkit.
