lemme rephrase...
what keywords should I research to find more about the use/features/options of the ":#:#" convention??
e.g. does that feature have a name?!
You know variable expansion covers how the shell interprets variables, but if people don't know the term "expansion", they might query for the wrong things. You get my point...
I've read lots of documentation and have never come across that, I'm thoroughly familiar with sed, my awk knowledge needs to catch up though.
Dude, I really appreciate this technique. It'll be very helpful when extracting certain portions of uniformly-formatted strings and storing to variables.
So if you know of a particular name (keyword) for that string:#:# technique, I'd appreciate it.

lorder(1) General Commands Manual lorder(1)
NAME
lorder - find ordering relation for an object library
SYNOPSIS
[files]
DESCRIPTION
The input consists of one or more object or archive library files (see ar(1)) placed on the command line or read from standard input. The
standard output is a list of pairs of object file names, meaning that the first file of the pair refers to external identifiers defined in
the second. Output can be processed by to find an ordering of a library suitable for one-pass access by (see tsort(1) and ld(1)). Note
that the link editor is capable of multiple passes over an archive in the archive format and does not require that be used when building an
archive. Using the command may, however, allow for a slightly more efficient access of the archive during the link edit process.
The symbol table maintained by allows to randomly access symbols and files in the archive, making the use of unnecessary when building ar-
chive libraries (see ar(1)).
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
Environment Variables
The following internationalization variables affect the execution of

If any internationalization variable contains an invalid setting, behaves as if all internationalization variables are set to See envi-
ron(5).
International Code Set Support
Single- and multi-byte character code sets are supported.
EXAMPLES

When creating libraries with so many objects that the shell cannot properly handle the expansion, the following technique may prove useful:

Object files whose names do not end with are overlooked, even when contained in library archives. Their global symbols and references are
attributed to some other file.
