Initial Comment:
hi, 

my built-in i-Sight cam has a "Backlight Compensation" property as [enumProps( shows it
but i can't set nor get it (apart with the enumProps mess)
[get Backlight Compensation( is just like [get Backlight, get Compensation( by nature
and 
[set Backlight Compensation 123( doesn't work at all since Backlight prop doesn't exists

best

antoine

Message:
this is a problem of Pd (creating symbols with spaces is awkward), not of
Gem.

workarounds are:
- use a symbolbox (Ctrl-4) to type the property name
- use the symbol that is output by the enumProps mess
- use something like "[32(->[makefilename Backlight%cCompensation]" or
[Backlight Compensation(->[list2symbol]
