From the example, I'd suggest that if there is a period followed by up
to three letters and then a space, the filename ends before that space.
From what I see, most filenames which have an extension don't have more
text after the extension (with the exception of another extension, which
is why I suggest that there must be a final space). Would that fit  ?
