I'm also interested where the monoid is meant to be because the identity
and compose functions right after the comment don't form one: bah,
monoids don't admit an identity operation, just an identity element.

I'm also a bit confused about Dave's mention of monad straight away
afterwards: there doesn't seem to be one used anywhere I look at the
source (although I'm not looking that hard). Is it a mistake or am I
missing something? Did you check out some sources from [1]? Those ought
to satisfy your interest to some degree.

Thanks

PS: There seem to be comments here and there in Polish with broken encoding.
