dot just mean 'here in this directory' - column is just the separator

Note: The character : is a colon, not a column.
"." ("dot" or "period") has meant "current directory" in DOS/Win and Unices
forever.
Classpaths follow path syntax, which has comprised colon-separated lists of
directories in UNIX and semicolon-separated lists of directories in
DOS/Windows forever.
This isn't even a Java issue. The intersection is knowing that the "classpath"
option to the "java" command takes a path as its argument. This has been the
case for Java forever.
You must understand classpaths to work with Java at all. Until you do, you are
doomed to work in the default package forever and never to be able to create
production code. For me when I started with Java, the business with classpaths
and packages messed me up the most of anything with the language. Once you get
it, it becomes second nature and extremely powerful to separate modules with
packages and to combine packages with classpaths (and manifests inside JARs).
To the first order, you should never put classes in the default package.
