+Alpha v0.95
+-full cleanup of AL class documentation
+-added *.Bind* helpers.
 
 
 Todo for beta:
 - Identify: AL_FILTER_FIRST_PARAMETER, AL_FILTER_LAST_PARAMETER
             AL_EFFECT_FIRST_PARAMETER, AL_EFFECT_LAST_PARAMETER
-- AL.BindBuffer helper function ala GL.BindBuffer? (Wraps AL.Source, better consistency)
-- change all "name" into "handle" to avoid confusion?
+- replace EaxEfx reverbs with Efx reverbs.
 
 Todo for final:
 - Enums themselves require summaries (do after some more serious tests)
