+# If you don't want Rails to look in certain directories,
+# use the following rewrite rules so that Apache won't rewrite certain requests
+# 
+# Example:
+#   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/notrails.*
+#   RewriteRule .* - [L]
+
+# Redirect all requests not available on the filesystem to Rails
+# By default the cgi dispatcher is used which is very slow
+# 
+# For better performance replace the dispatcher with the fastcgi one
+#
+# Example:
+#   RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
+RewriteEngine On
+
+# If your Rails application is accessed via an Alias directive,
+# then you MUST also set the RewriteBase in this htaccess file.
+#
+# Example:
+#   Alias /myrailsapp /path/to/myrailsapp/public
+#   RewriteBase /myrailsapp
+
+RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
+RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA]
+RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
+RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.cgi [QSA,L]

+# In case Rails experiences terminal errors
+# Instead of displaying this message you can supply a file here which will be rendered instead

+# Example:
+#   ErrorDocument 500 /500.html
