Huh? Amiga volume names ended in colon "DH0:" but
the folder names weren't separated by colons in a path string.

I can't remember an instance where a Mac application allowed the
user to enter the colons, although they were used internally, and
you could use them in some developer tools that gave command
lines or operated on "makefile"s.
