The equal sign, equals sign, or "=" is a mathematical symbol used to indicate equality. It was invented in 1557 by Welshman Robert Recorde. The equals sign is placed between the things stated to be exactly the same, as in an equation. It is the Unicode and ASCII character 003D (in hexadecimal).

Replace the . equals sign. in that last example, and you have slashtags, which I think are much better at communicating that color is a parent of the red value: color/red. In this way, this slashtag or slasher approach, ...
