Would it be much trouble to add them?Bear in mind HNOP compiles just to an executable file, so it doesn't really have a Haskell API. One interesting line of development would be to spin off the core functionality into a separate library, to provide no-op services to other Haskell applications. I'm thinking something like this: noop :: IO () -- generalise to other Monads? This would actually not be too hard to write, given my existing work, and then of course the executable would simply be a thin wrapper.
As suggested above, this patch moves the core functionality to a library module, Control.Nop. Furthermore, the nop function is generalized to a polyvariadic function, so that you can now write for example:
import Control.Nop main :: IO () main = nop "Hello World!" and still get the expected lack of results. /Björn
