[users@httpd] rewrite rule to change spaces to underscores

[da...@ymp.gov]

Is there a simple rewrite rule to change all space (and/or %20's) in a URL 
to underscores (_) ??

Thanks,

Dan

RewriteRule   ^(.*)\s(.*)$      $1_$2 [N]

This rule will (if present) replace on space with an underscore, after
which ruler processing is restarted bacause of the N flag. So this
server will loop over this rule until no more spaces are present...
