+As discussed in [the Flow View section of the mitmproxy overview](@!urlTo("mitmproxy.html")!@) allows you to inspect and manipulate flows.  When inspecting a single flow, mitmproxy uses a number of heuristics to show a friendly view of various content types; if mitmproxy cannot show a friendly view, mitmproxy defaults to a __raw__ view.
+
+By default, mitmproxy has support for displaying the following content types in a friendly view:
+
+- __1__: Hex
+- __2__: HTML
+- __3__: Image
+- __4__: JavaScript
+- __5__: JSON
+- __6__: URL-encoded data
+- __7__: XML
+- __8__: AMF (requires PyAMF)
+
+Each content type invokes a different flow viewer to parse the data and display the friendly view.  Users can add support for custom views by:
+
+- __1__: Adding a new View class to contentview.py; and
+- __2__: Adding the hotkey to new view to flowview.py 
+
+## Adding a View class to contentview.py
+
+The viewers used by mitmproxy to present a friendly view of various content types are stored in contentview.py.  Reviewing this file shows a number of classes named ViewSomeDataType, each with the properties: name, prompt, and content-type and a function named "\_\_call\_\_".
+
+Adding code to parse additional data types is as simple as writing a new View class.  It should have the same properties and function as the other View classes.  The name property should be a string describing the contents and view; the prompt property should be a two item tuple where the first item is a string that will be used to display the View's type and the second item is a one character string that will be the hotkey used to select the view; the content-type property should be a list of strings of content\_types that the view can parse.  Note that mitmproxy will use the content\_types to try and heuristically show a friendly view of content and that you can override the built-in views by populating content\_types with values for content\_types that are already parsed -- e.g. "image/png".
+
+After defining the name, prompt, and content\_type properties of the class, you should write the \_\_call\_\_ function, which will parse the request/response data and provide a friendly view of the data.  The \_\_call\_\_ function should take the following arguments: self, hdrs, content, limit; hdrs is a ODict of the headers of the request/response; content is the content of the request/response, and limit is XXXXX.
+
+The \_\_call\_\_ function returns two values: (1) a string describing the parsed data; and (2) the parsed data for friendly display.
