You can't do that; sorry. You can always turn a string into an IOException
if you like. Or you could write a wrapper around IO. But MonadError has a
functional dependency, so you can only have one error type per monad.

Hello,
IO is an instance of MonadError IOException...
However I also need to make it an instance of MonadError String...
Is it possible?
I'm trying to instanciate this class:

class (Typeable n, Monad n, Applicative n, MonadError String n) => EvMgt n
where ...

instance EvMgt IO where...

Any idea?
