Both rx<space> and rx:<space> can be used depending on your own preference.
It made more sense to me to simplify the prefix to to rx<space> because in most instances trailing spaces are automatically stripped off.

Thank you for clarification, I was not aware of using - to reverse to modifier.
I don't use regexp as much as one might think and most of this is new to me as well
