If you want a global variable then you can use something like:
import System.IO.Unsafe (unsafePerformIO)
global = unsafePerformIO (newIORef [])
But this is often regarded as bad programming style (depends who you talk to).
Besides, isn't this example /really/ unsafe? I thought, at least the IORef has to be monomorphic or else type safety is lost?
Perhaps your question is rhetorical,
Half-way ;-) I was pretty sure but not 100%. Thanks for the nice example. Cheers, Ben
