[Haskell-cafe] How to make interface IO() to IO a in a
command-driven tool

Dear Haskell users,
I am working on a command-driven tool (::IO ()).
If the system invokes itself again, and the system's returned
data type would be 'IO a', say (IO Exp) (Expression).
tool:: a -> IO()
The nested tool invocation returns (IO Exp) to the previous tool.
I am using dynamic error exception handling like (throwDyn exp).
If I use 'forkIO', then it works for this situation (e.g. IO Exp) but it
is not working for 'quit' command (quit the tool:: thread blocked
indefinitely) - quit the subtool and return to the previous tool.
Any suggestion would be helpful?
tool = {tool1, tool2, tool3, ...}
tool1:: (IO ())
invoked tool2:: (IO a)
may invoked tool3:: (IO a)
tool2 is working basically on IO() and if I got the Exp (proved), then
return it to the previous tool (say tool1).
Thanks in advance,
min
