Cool, that's awesome. But I don't see any Haddock docs? Or a Cabal
Setup.hs? 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 sorry; I know this is a serious discussion (either that or  
everyone involved in this discussion has a more subtle sense of humor  
than I), but this sentence made me laugh out loud...  :-)

"no-op services"?  That's just great!
...
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.
