Kevin, I highly recommend you take a look at the Haskell from Scratch
video series by jekor:

He's currently writing "redo" in Haskell, which is a software build tool
similar to make.  This means he's reading directory contents, reading
and writing files, and executing system calls.  Sounds right up your
alley.
