I don't know Haskell but I was thinking about a simpler approach maybe a
static table that would follow the variable.  This would be totally
optional.  I just want a way to perform some "unit testing" on some of
my Lua scripts.  Most of my scripts follow certain patterns, and I would
like a way to test if the scripts don't follow that pattern.  Maybe
Haskell offers that.  I just don't know.
