-The # symbol serves as an arbitrary delimiter, ensuring that the second parenthesized group captures the working directory that's known to the server at the time of processing.

 This example can be extended to perform different redirections depending on which virtual host handled the transaction (just create a new stanza with a different condition on %{HTTP_HOST}). In this way you can give your visitors the same experience whether they've bookmarked your site as http://YOURUSERNAME.sdf.org or http://sdf.org/~YOURUSERNAME, without having to duplicate your content in multiple folders.
