NAME
    LoadView -- Use a (possibly freshly created) coprocessor instruction
               list to create the current display.

SYNOPSIS
    LoadView( View )
              A1

    void LoadView( struct View * );

FUNCTION
    Install a new view to be displayed during the next display
    refresh pass.
    Coprocessor instruction list has been created by
    InitVPort(), MakeVPort(), and MrgCop().

INPUTS
    View - a pointer to the View structure which contains the
    pointer to the constructed coprocessor instructions list, or NULL.

RESULT
    If the View pointer is non-NULL, the new View is displayed,
    according to your instructions.  The vertical blank routine
    will pick this pointer up and direct the copper to start
    displaying this View.

    If the View pointer is NULL, no View is displayed.

NOTE
    Even though a LoadView(NULL) is performed, display DMA will still be
    active.  Sprites will continue to be displayed after a LoadView(NULL)
    unless an OFF_SPRITE is subsequently performed.
