Support for different formats is -consistant across platforms, so no special checks are needed when loading files, -and all formats are handled through the same API. +The purpose of this library is to provide premade functionality +that would otherwise be repetitive or difficult to (re)code for +various projects and platforms, such as loading a sound file into +an OpenAL buffer and streaming an audio file through a buffer queue. +Support for different formats is consistant across platforms, so +no special checks are needed when loading files, and all formats +are handled through the same API. -Currently ALURE includes a basic .wav and .aif file reader, -and can leverage external libraries such as libSndFile -(for extended wave formats and several others), VorbisFile (for Ogg Vorbis), -FLAC (for FLAC and Ogg FLAC), and others.
