title: Excluding filename using RewriteRule
body: <p>I want to pipe all URIs into index.php UNLESS the specific file exists in the root. I'm a little stumped when it comes to excluding index.php from this as of course it won't match my last catch all rule</p>
  
  <pre><code>Options +FollowSymLinks -Indexes
  RewriteEngine On
  
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} != "index/.php" // I'm not sure on the syntax here
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php [L]
  
  RewriteRule ^([^/]*)(.*)$ index.php?category=$1&amp;post=$2 [L,QSA]
  </code></pre>
