Well, if you want to play golf, you can even leave out the spaces:

perl -F: -lane 'print "@F[0, 4]"' /etc/passwd
[download]

or leave out perl completely:

cut -d: -f1,5 /etc/passwd|tr : \
[download]

of which the end reminds me to this classic error message:

$ \(-
-bash: (-: command not found
[download]
