This is a simple framework which hides away the IO monad and allows beginner

students to write simple applications in Haskell without having to touch the

`IO` monad for reading or writing to standard file descriptors or other files.

This skeleton comes with a simple example showing the usage of this system. As

you can see, only three lines are to be copied by the student:

* the `module Main` one

* the `import Training.MM.IOManager` one

* the `main = wrapIO ..` one

Everything else is free of advanced concepts like monads, mutability,

strictness, etc.

This skeleton can be used to set up a homework which can then be automatically

tested using tools like [vmchecker][vmchecker]

Example

=======

The repository contains an example code in `SimpleEchoExample.hs`: a

demonstrative program which copies content from files (or `stdin`) to files

(or `stdout`) depending on a description written at `stdin`.

Run `make` (or the usual `cabal` setup) to build it and then give as arguments

the name of the files from which you want to read. Finish `stdin` with `EOF`

(`^D` on Linux, `^Z` on Windows).

Example:

    ./SimpleEchoExample Makefile M.out unused

    Makefile out_Makefile

    M.out out_Mout

    @stdin out_stdin

    @stdin @stdout

Due to Haskell's laziness, `unused` will not be read.
