foo = f3 . f2 . f1
Assuming those are all 1-argument functions, it works great. But if f1 is a *two* argument function (like map is), the type checker refuses to allow it, and I have to rewrite it as
foo x y = f3 $ f2 $ f1 x y
Look at the type of (.).(.) which should tell you how to compose functions with more than one variable. Mind you, I don't think it improves readability.

Interesting function. It got a sibling: (.)(.) :: (a1 -> b -> c) -> a1 -> (a -> b) -> a -> c Anybody knows how to intepret that? I tried to call it with (++) "t" (++"s") "it" but suddenly got distracted.
