Put the file name in quotes to avoid having the default extension
appended. So "myfile" is really myfile, but myotherfile becomes
myotherfile.txt.

Must be an OS thing. NT4 works fine - does not add a .txt extension.
Could just be Windows 9x ???

When you do 'save as', be sure to change the 'Save as type:' box to 'All
Files (*.*)'. Or, better yet, get a sane text editor and run it on a
sane OS. ;)

Unless you are using win2k, then notepad will save it as .htaccess.txt.
Ever saved a file named something.txt? It's really saved as
something.txt.txt!

Re: [users@httpd] .htaccess in win32

I've found it useful to still use .htaccess on Windows machines (where I
do my development) as I do not need to then rename the file when I
upload it to my hosting company (which requires files called .htaccess).

thanks for the advice guys
anyway I got some more questions
1. What is the order in which the directives are processed ?
2. mime.types file lists out a lot of types but where can I learn about the
mime types ?
For example suppose I have a video file in a directory
http://www.xyz.com/my_video.asf
it is in the asf format
now how do I make or edit a mime entry for it what mime type would it be ?
where can I learn about all the mime types ?
3. similary where can I get a list of all the user-agent headers possible
with all the browsers out there ?, so that I may use in setenvif or
browsermatch

That suggestion is fine. A couple alternatives:
1. Find a program that does allow saving files with dot names. Not all
windows programs are so stupid as to forbid this.
2. Use a different name for ".htaccess" files by setting the
AccessFilename directive. For example,
AccessFilename ht.access
will allow you to use ht.access as the name.

Trying to rename a file to .htaccess in Windows Explorer is not allowed,
but you can save a file called .htaccess from Notepad.
