Introduction
I'd like to get some forms of type composition into a standard library. Below is my first shot at it. I'm using these definitions in a new version of Phooey.
Comments & suggestions, please. Conal 23:16, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

---- Various type constructor compositions and instances for them.
module Control.Compose ((:.:)(..), (:.::)(..), (::.:)(..), App(..)) where
import Control.Applicative
import Control.Arrow hiding (pure)
import Data.Monoid
-- | Composition of type constructors: unary & unary.
newtype (g :.: f) a = T_T { runT_T :: g (f a) }
instance (Functor g, Functor f) => Functor (g :.: f) where
fmap f (T_T m) = T_T (fmap (fmap f) m)
instance (Applicative g, Applicative f) => Applicative (g :.: f) where
pure = T_T . pure . pure
T_T getf <*> T_T getx = T_T (liftA2 (<*>) getf getx)
-- | Composition of type constructors: unary & binary.
newtype (f :.:: (~>)) a b = T_TT { runT_TT :: f (a ~> b) }
instance (Applicative f, Arrow (~>)) => Arrow (f :.:: (~>)) where
arr = T_TT . pure . arr
T_TT g >>> T_TT h = T_TT (liftA2 (>>>) g h)
first (T_TT g) = T_TT (liftA first g)
-- For instance, /\ a b. f (a -> m b) =~ f :.:: Kleisli m
-- | Composition of type constructors: unary & binary.
-- Wolfgang Jeltsch pointed out a problem with these definitions: 'splitA'
-- and 'mergeA' are not inverses. The definition of 'first', e.g.,
-- violates the \"extension\" law and causes repeated execution. Look for
-- a reformulation or a clarification of required properties of the
-- applicative functor @f@.

-- We can also drop the App constructor, but then we overlap with many
-- other instances, like [a].
