Ruby uses .. for this (eg a[2..-1]), which has a mathematical touch.
Putting spaces before and after the colon is perfectly ok for me though
-- now that I know it.

Hi,
The following code throws a "Undefined variable a1:" error:
let a1 = 1 | let b = [1,2,3] | echo b[a1:-1]
When one puts a blank after a1, it's ok though:
let a1 = 1 | let b = [1,2,3] | echo b[a1 : -1]
Since "a1" is no valid scope and "a1:" is an illegal variable name, IMHO
