[Haskell-beginners] More direct binding of IO result

I understand that one can bind the unwrapped results of IO functions to variables, and pass them to functions, like so: main = do filecontents <- readFile "data.txt" putStrLn filecontents But does the syntax allow you to cut out the middle man, so to speak, and bind the results directly to the parameter? Like -- Tried this and it didn't work. main = do putStrLn (<- readFile "data.txt") -- frigidcode.com theologia.indicium.us
