[erlang-questions] why prefixing module name with '.' works?

Notice '.' in front of 'lists' module name.
Is this somehow connected to module namespaces?

1> lists:seq(1,10).      
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]

2> .lists:seq(1,10).     
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]

3> . lists:seq(1,10).
* 1: syntax error before: '.'

BR,
Zvi
