wtf? You don't put stuff in your htaccess for fun xD
You only edit/add to your htaccess file if you need to. So you gotta tell us what you're trying to achieve.

Redirecting root to subdirectory is easy. Just place an index.html file in your root directory and put this in it:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;http://domain.com/subdirectory" />

urgent is nothing in htaccess, but it's nice to have the www to non www redirection or the other way around. but you can do all this in php too of course.
