-post URLs.

 To solve this problem, I really needed to solve two pieces:
 
-1. Redirect all blog post URL requests from `/blog/some-post.html` to
-   `/blog/some-post/`.
-2. Ensure that no other `.html` files are redirected, such as `index.html`.
+1. Redirect all blog post URL requests from =/blog/some-post.html= to

+2. Ensure that no other =.html= files are redirected, such as
+   =index.html=.
 
-After _a lot_ of tweaking and testing, I believe I have finally found the
-solution. The solution is shown below.
