+/** \defgroup out123_api out123 library API
+ *  This is out123, a library focused on continuous playback of audio streams
+ *  via various platform-specific output methods. It glosses over details of
+ *  the native APIs to give an interface close to simply writing data to a
+ *  file. There might be the option to tune details like buffer (period) sizes
+ *  and the number of them on the device side in future, but the focus of the
+ *  library is to ease the use case of just getting that raw audio data out
+ *  there, without interruptions.
+ *
+ *  The basic idea is to create a handle with out123_new() and open a certain
+ *  output device (using a certain driver module, possibly build-time defaults)
+ *  with out123_open(). Now, you can query the output device for supported
+ *  encodings for given rate and channel count with out123_get_encodings() and
+ *  decide what to use for actually starting playback with out123_start().
+ *
+ *  Then, you just need to provide (interleaved pcm) data for playback with
+ *  out123_play(), which will block when the device's buffers are full. You get
+ *  your timing from that (instead of callbacks). If your program does the
+ *  production of the audio data just a little bit faster than the playback,
+ *  causing out123_play() to block ever so briefly, you're fine.
+ *
+ *  You stop playback with out123_stop(), or just close the device and driver
+ *  via out123_close(), or even just decide to drop it all and do out123_del()
+ *  right away when you're done.
+ *
+ *  There are other functions for specific needs, but the basic idea should be
+ *  covered by the above.
+ *
+ *  Note that the driver modules that bind to the operating system API for
+ *  output might impose restrictions on what you can safely do regarding your
+ *  out123_handle and multiple threads or processes. You should be on the safe
+ *  side ensuring that you confine usage of a handle to a single thread instead
+ *  of passing it around.
