[Haskell] return?

Hi, While writing monad programs, I sometimes want to do a return as it is in imperative program. i.e., do{return 1; return 2} is same as return 1 This seems useful to me when I need to do something like do mwhen cond $ return 1 ...... -- subsequent actions I know I can do if cond then return 1 else ( ...--subsequent actions ) However, that syntax does not look very pleasant to me due to this extra indentation and the pair of parens. Is this possible at all? Ben.
