## redirections for usedirs
Want to turn on the `usedirs` setting on an existing wiki without breaking

Want to turn on the `usedirs` setting on an existing wiki without breaking
all the links into it? Here's a way to do it for Apache, using the
RewriteEngine. This example is for a wiki at the top of a web site, but can
be adapted to other situations.
# pages
RewriteCond $1 !^/~ # these pages
RewriteCond $1 !^/doc/ # are not part of
RewriteCond $1 !^/ajaxterm # the wiki, so
RewriteCond $1 !^/cgi-bin/ # don't rewrite them
RewriteCond $1 !.*/index$
RewriteRule (.+).html $1/ [R]
# rss feeds
RewriteCond $1 !^/~
RewriteCond $1 !.*/index$
RewriteRule (.+).rss $1/index.rss
# atom feeds
RewriteCond $1 !^/~
RewriteCond $1 !.*/index$
RewriteRule (.+).atom $1/index.atom

Now that ikiwiki supports using page/index.html rather than page.html, how about some mechanism to automatically generate a .htaccess file with "Redirect permanent" lines for each such page?
