You're absolutely right, IO::Lambda is and and was all about CP-style from the very beginning. However, I remember I was reluctant to mention monads because they strangely spook people, so I thought, if I'd tell about CPS that would be even worse :) Still, I agree, for those who know about CPS, the analogy will be immediately clear. Thank you for the advice, I'll try to include it so that it won't scare off newcomers but will still be visible.
btw, adding links to wikipedia inside a pod might be just the right thing to to.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
