+<p><STRONG>Notice:</STRONG> These variables all correspond to
+the similarly named HTTP MIME-headers, C variables of the Apache
+server or <CODE>struct tm</CODE> fields of the Unix system. Most
+are documented elsewhere in the Manual or in the CGI specification.
+Those that are special to mod_rewrite include:</p>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><code>IS_SUBREQ</code></dt>
+<dd>Will contain the text "true" if the request currently
+being processed is a sub-request, "false" otherwise. Sub-requests may
+be generated by modules that need to resolve additional files or URIs
+in order to complete their tasks.</dd>
+
+<dt><code>API_VERSION</code></dt>
+<dd>This is the version of the Apache module API (the internal
+interface between server and module) in the current httpd build, as
+defined in include/ap_mmn.h. The module API version corresponds to the
+version of Apache in use (in the release version of Apache 1.3.14, for
+instance, it is 19990320:10), but is mainly of interest to module
+authors.</dd>
+
+<dt><code>THE_REQUEST</code></dt>
+<dd>The full HTTP request line sent by the browser to the server
+(e.g., "<code>GET /index.html HTTP/1.1</code>"). This does not include
+any additional headers sent by the browser.</dd>
+
+<dt><code>REQUEST_URI</code></dt>
+<dd>The resource requested in the HTTP request line. (In the
+example above, this would be "/index.html".)</dd>
+
+<dt><code>REQUEST_FILENAME</code></dt>
+<dd>The full local filesystem path to the file or script
+matching the request.</dd>
+</dl>
