I agree that the interface you propose addresses the design constraints you list pretty much perfectly, but I think it's far too heavy to be usable. Personally I can't stand...

Hmm, that looks vaguely promising, but I don't really understand how one's supposed to use it. Can you show some example?

I mean--`result` is still abstract, this is the same basic problem, just shuffled around.

That doesn't help at all. E.g. if we have a `get_width : string → int fn` and it's used in an expression `let is_wide = get_width "window" > 1000` then...

Oh, I see your overall approach now, now that I look at `val (>>=) : 'a fn -> ('a -> 'b fn) -> 'b fn`. I concur that this is...

Known issue, not considered important enough to spend time on. Patches welcome, of course.

In theory, it should be a host-runnable binary, i.e. the same as `ocamlfind doc`. I don't recall what was wrong to make it a Windows one, some build system plumbing...

It immediately crashed when I tried to build it on `4.02.3+32bit`. Further the camlimages' OMakefile does not do everything using ocamlfind, and generally tries to do annoying things like unconditionally...
