Github user pluradj commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/pull/384 I retested with the latest commits. Setting a preference value with spaces worked, remotes worked nicely with `conf/remote-objects.yaml`. Nice work @robertdale. `mvn clean install -pl gremlin-console -DskipIntegrationTests=false` was successful. One other thought here even though I've already voted... it might be better if the preference keys were all prefixed with `gremlin.` since Groovy preferences are [globally shared](https://github.com/apache/groovy/blob/master/src/main/org/codehaus/groovy/tools/shell/util/Preferences.java#L34) with other groovysh-based consoles. That preference problem may have hit us before with [`interpreterMode`](https://github.com/thinkaurelius/titan/issues/1172).
