It now works with .* prepended, and I'm just curious why?
Well, uh, because the '.*' says 'match zero or more of any character',
whereas a literal space says to match, well, a literal space.

Do you figure the identified text qualifies as:
a. "one space, exactly"
b "zero or more of anything"
This is an open book exam. The manpages are at your disposal.
