I understand pre-OS X Macintoshes used colons.

They did! And I weirdly kind of miss them for the entirely non-logical reason that they looked elegant.

Don't get me wrong, I adapted in about 3 seconds when I made the switch to Mac OS X 25 years ago, but I irrationally kinda miss them just a tiny bit.

Code in Rust and you can get double colons for your library path imports!
