Looks like it's just a lowercase i
So Fmi7-- is Fm7

Never seen it before, but it certainly looks like minor is written m: and major is written ma.

I agree that it looks like a colon and that it can be read, successfully, as a dotted i. But, a dotted i isn't two equal dots, so my guess is that it's just an idiosyncratic way of making minor and major look different. Or it could be a strange looking dotted i like Patrick already said.

the major chords have only one dot..so it appears to distinguish between minor two dots and major one dot
