Hi,
More and more I have noticed the use of a double colon [::]in coding
explanations but have not noticed it actually used anywhere. Does it
mean anything other than being used as a format.
For example, in a recent repo description:
perl-DateTime-Format-Natural
Description :
DateTime::Format::Natural takes a string with a human readable
date/time and creates a machine readable one by applying natural
parsing logic.
rsync uses the :: in its a man pages. There it seems to indicate a
remote machine, but doesn't seem to be required.
Just something I have been meaning to ask for a long time.
