Also ... if you want to find a single space following a period, a question mark, or an exclamation point, you could use this:

([\.?!] )(\S)

That first group in brackets finds:
a period, or a question mark, or an exclamation point

following the bracketed group is a single space (tap on the spacebar)

So the first found set -- $1 -- is:
a single space after a period, question mark, or an exclamation point.
