Solar allows you to remove the "index.php" part easily. All you need
is mod_rewrite / RedirectMatch in Apache or mod_magnet in Lighttpd. I
bet there are even more alternatives :). In Apache, you'd use
directives in .htaccess; in Lighttpd, you would tie mod_magnet to a
script in your preferred language. Then you configure Solar_Uri_Action
to remove the index.php.
