WxHaskell has a particularly well-designed API, see also

   http://legacy.cs.uu.nl/daan/download/papers/wxhaskell.pdf


However, I think that event handling can be done even more elegantly 
and, in particular, integrated with functional reactive programming 
(FRP). See my recent project

   http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Threepenny-gui

for a post-wxHaskell take on a GUI API.
