.htaccess Redirect Directive file to directory

Question

I'm writing a .htaccess to support a couple moved files on a site. The concept is that /filename.htm is now at /filename/index.htm and I want links to it to read just /filename/. Here is what I have:

redirect permanent /filename.htm http://www.example.com/filename/

Will this work as expected? Thanks.

Yes, your code looks good, should do the trick.
