Description

You can think of `Shell` as `[]` + `IO` + `Managed`. In fact, you can embed all three of them within a `Shell`:

    select ::        [a] -> Shell a
    liftIO ::      IO a  -> Shell a
    using  :: Managed a  -> Shell a

Those three embeddings obey these laws:

    do { x <- select m; select (f x) } = select (do { x <- m; f x })
    do { x <- liftIO m; liftIO (f x) } = liftIO (do { x <- m; f x })
    do { x <- with   m; using  (f x) } = using  (do { x <- m; f x })

    select (return x) = return x
    liftIO (return x) = return x
    using  (return x) = return x

... and `select` obeys these additional laws:

    select xs <|> select ys = select (xs <|> ys)
    select empty = empty

You typically won't build `Shell`s using the `Shell` constructor. Instead, use these functions to generate primitive `Shell`s:

- `empty`, to create a `Shell` that outputs nothing
- `return`, to create a `Shell` that outputs a single value
- `select`, to range over a list of values within a `Shell`
- `liftIO`, to embed an `IO` action within a `Shell`
- `using`, to acquire a `Managed` resource within a `Shell`

Then use these classes to combine those primitive `Shell`s into larger `Shell`s:

- `Alternative`, to concatenate `Shell` outputs using (`<|>`)
- `Monad`, to build `Shell` comprehensions using `do` notation

If you still insist on building your own `Shell` from scratch, then the `Shell` you build must satisfy this law:

    -- For every shell `s`:
    _foldIO s (FoldM step begin done) = do
        x  <- begin
        x' <- _foldIO s (FoldM step (return x) return)
        done x'

... which is a fancy way of saying that your `Shell` must call `'begin'` exactly once when it begins and call `'done'` exactly once when it ends.
