TIP: Windows users may use the included `bin/gremlin.bat`
(`bin/gremlin-java8.bat` for Java 8) file to start the Gremlin
Console.
+TIP: If you make a mistake when entering a command and the prompt gets "stuck"
(for example, after a syntax error or an
+incomplete statement), you can use the `:clear` (or `:c`) command to reset the
console's input buffer and return to a
+normal prompt.

The Gremlin Console is a
link:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Read%E2%80%93eval%E2%80%93print_loop[REPL
environment],
which provides a nice way to learn Gremlin as you get immediate feedback for
the code that you enter. This eliminates
the more complex need to "create a project" to try things out. The console is
not just for "getting started", however.
