How about getting the documentation though?  glow can't be unioned and generally don't
work in CSG.
Changes were made and didn't get updated into new demo scenes for v0.7 but if you
remove the union
{ line and its closing } line and it'll render.  And look very cool too :-)
You will notice a message stream line saying FSWG Macro: running for # sec. (meaning
it will take
some time) then another of the same until it finally renders a display.
