Rails applications yet no .htaccess

Well it seems that when running the command to create a Rails application, it no longer creates that much needed .htaccess file in the public/ directory, and you'll notice alot of people pissed off about this, so below is a default Rails .htaccess file set to use FastCGI.

# General Apache options
AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI
 
# 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
 
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [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
 
ErrorDocument 500 "<h2>Application error</h2>Rails application failed to start properly"


And for those missing Gems, add the following to ~/.bashrc at the bottom:

export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/packages/bin:$HOME/.gems/bin 
export GEM_HOME=$HOME/ruby/gems 
export GEM_PATH=$GEM_HOME:/usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.8 
export GEM_CACHE=$GEM_HOME/cache
 
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/ruby/gems/bin
