forever even has a different type than repeatM_. More reason to have both.
Is anyone else feeling uncomfortably crowded by the current namespace exported by the haskell libraries?
I think a good naming criteria is "could anyone have a function defined with this name which _didn't_ do exactly what this one does". For example, repeatM_ - can anyone think of an alternative definition which didn't do the obvious thing? However forever could have loads of interpretations. Thanks Neil
