The dot represents concatenation. If there was a literal dot we'd write e.g. sha1($salt.'.'.$pass)
You can simulate sha1($salt.$pass) by running sha1($pass) with -a 7, sure. But this is not a good idea with multiple salts because then you will not eliminate any salts once all hashes with that salt have been cracked. In other words, Hashcat is smarter than you
