Monad Recorder
A monad transformer that allows recording the results of monadic actions and allows replaying them later so that the application can resume from the same point.
Results of a RecorderT computation are recorded in a running journal using the record combinator. A computation can be paused at any point using the pause primitive returning a Recording that can be used to restart the computation from the same point later. When the recording is replayed, the record combinator returns the previously recorded result of the computation from the journal being replayed instead of actually running the computation again.
