2-squares of functors #
Given four functors T, L, R and B, a 2-square TwoSquare T L R B consists of
a natural transformation w : T ⋙ R ⟶ L ⋙ B:
T
C₁ ⥤ C₂
L | | R
v v
C₃ ⥤ C₄
B
We define operations to paste such squares horizontally and vertically and prove the interchange law of those two operations.

Generalize all of this to double categories.
A 2-square consists of a natural transformation T ⋙ R ⟶ L ⋙ B
involving fours functors T, L, R, B that are on the
top/left/right/bottom sides of a square of categories.
