This hook allows modules to provide their own views which can either be used as-is or as a "starter" for users to build from.

This hook should be placed in MODULENAME.views_default.inc and it will be auto-loaded. MODULENAME.views_default.inc must be in the directory specified by the 'path' key returned by MODULENAME_views_api(), or the same directory as the .module file, if 'path' is unspecified.

The $view->disabled boolean flag indicates whether the View should be enabled (FALSE) or disabled (TRUE) by default.

Return value

An associative array containing the structures of views, as generated from the Export tab, keyed by the view name. A best practice is to go through and add t() to all title and label strings, with the exception of menu strings.
