I might have misunderstood you, but what about using the existing interact function: http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.12.1/html/libraries/base-4.2.0.0/Prelude.html#...
And for your interact, since it is not in the IO monad, you cannot write such a function. [ don't tell him about the unsafePerformIO :) ]
Uh, interact absolutely *is* in the IO monad, and is totally implementable without unsafePerformIO, like this:
Upps now I need to clarify myself I guess. I said "your interact is not in the IO monad", because the interact OP defined had the type: interact :: String -> Resp Which obviously is not in the IO monad, if he is not hiding something in Resp (looks unlikely to me)
interact f = putStr =<< f <$> getContents
Bob
And of course, interact is something implementable :) Best, Ozgur
