I did the quick hasty "in my head" calculation, where you get (use a
monospace font):

.....

..*..

(or, everything in radius 2)

It's not at all accurate, really.

My problem with the Yeti is that it involves updating a LOT of individual
squares. (See, the system I have now only lets me edit one square at a
time.) Eight of 'em was bad enough, but 12 or 16 or 24 or however many
there are is more than eight.
