You're right in that respect (I had forgotten about that), but I feel that a
set-word should require at least one whitespace after the colon. Otherwise
there's this problem:
>> x:"Hello!"
== "Hello!"
Works OK with string! values, now try a integer! value:
>> x:123
== x:123
>> x
== "Hello!"
Hmmmm...

== string!
