Nimbus dots in ringcode

Certain Nimbus mastered discs contain a series of dots at the end of the ringcode (example 3-dot variant). These do not have individual Unicode symbols that can be used, but instead should be captured through a combination of the colon (:) and interpunct (·) symbols, e.g.

1-dot - ·
2-dot - :
3-dot - :·
4-dot - ::
5-dot - :·:
