+A value of type @'IO' a@ is a computation which, when performed,
+does some I\/O before returning a value of type @a@.
+
+There is really only one way to \"perform\" an I\/O action: bind it to
+@Main.main@ in your program. When your program is run, the I\/O will
+be performed. It isn't possible to perform I\/O from an arbitrary
+function, unless that function is itself in the 'IO' monad and called
+at some point, directly or indirectly, from @Main.main@.
+
+'IO' is a monad, so 'IO' actions can be combined using either the do-notation
+or the '>>' and '>>=' operations from the 'Monad' class.
