See all that whitespace? It's very hard to think the colon goes to the "Type" bit.
Except, logically, why would they bother to specially call out <Enter>, a whitespace character, but not the spaces as well if they intended the user to type them?
I can't think of any obvious, safe way to display text that a user should type that isn't subject to possible misinterpretation in the single line of output available.
