:
is an ending character by default. You only have to define
::colors':: ; or/and
::colors::
Send,
(
red, violet, blue
)
return
and press :
after typing colors'
or colors
.
That answers my question only partly. I realized that when I type "colors:", I get the desired result somehow. But I also get two unnecessary shortcuts I lean to avoid: "colors" and "colors'".

Then use another character instead of:
, e.g./
or<
.
