Detailed Description

GliaFiles in NPL are always executed in the receiver environment and share the same global environment in which they are executed.

They may not have activate() function like the neuron file.They act as local files, and can be activated by a special function called NPL.ActivateCopy(), which will make a copy of the glia file to the destination NPL runtime and execute it from there as a local file.

In the human brain, glia are estimated to outnumber neurons by as much as 50 to 1. The only notable differences between neurons and glia, by modern scrutiny, are the ability to generate action potentials and the polarity of neurons, namely the axons and dendrites which glia lack.
