> Processing eg consecutive elements is often annoying

the only place i saw a higher-order function for this is the K language with its `eachpair` combinator (spelled `':` iirc). i wonder why it isn't more common!

(though in Haskell i'd just stick a `tails` somewhere to turn `[a,b,c]` into `[[a,b,c],[b,c],[c],[]]` and map over that)
