No, actually - I do know what he's referring to, and now that I think
about it, it's confusing me exactly HOW they DO do it. In the
wordpress control panel, you can type in a certain re-write path, and
it... just works. That is weird, never really thought about it
before. I don't have a running wordpress install right now, or I'd go
fiddle with it ^^/

IIRC WordPress has an option to print out some sample Apache
configuration
lines, which you still have to manually install/activate, and won't
work on any
other web server software, or on Apache if you don't have the
appropriate
permissions enabled by your system administrator (since this is not
available by
default). Is this what you're referring to?
