[Haskell-cafe] Article review: Category Theory

Hi David,

For some reason, in Firefox printing those diagrams to a black and
white printer gives black for the background. It means that the arrows
and annotations are in black on black, not the most readable...

Any way to fix that? Perhaps uploading diagrams with white
backgrounds, instead of transparent (if that is currently the case)

Thanks

Neil
