Cool, thanks. BTW, the Haskell' wiki says its adoption status is 'probably no' which I find unfortunate. IMHO recursive do is a /very/ useful and practical feature and the cons listed on http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/haskell-prime/wiki/RecursiveDo don't weigh enough against that. Ok, just my (relatively uninformed) 2 cents.
