I haven't tried this, but you should be able to create an IO-like
class/object where the methods you care about are (or call) the custom
functions you want to use. It would be nice if there was an module you
could mix into an object that implemented a few of the more basic
function which would build on those to provide the rest of the IO
interface, the way Enumerable builds on an "each" method in the class
its mixed into.
