Ooh, thanks for that! I didn't even know hlint existed. That's pretty
cool. As far as use of the State monad... What I was thinking is that I've
got the CPU state that gets fed into just about every function, which then
returns a new modified CPU. So I'm constantly passing the CPU around. I
might want to be able to have hooks that allow me to escape normal updating
of the CPU when something specific happens (maybe an error, maybe something
else). Would State help with that or are there any better alternatives?
Thanks!
