OT: On-Rev html -> irev conversion.

I'm about to go live with my first real on-rev (i.e. irev based) site. I 
have a couple of sites up already, but this is the first pre-existing 
site that I am converting over to take advantage of .irev scripts, and 
being fully dynamic.

And I have a small worry .....

There are a couple of different ways that users of the site might have 
become tied into .html files
   - bookmarks to specific pages within the site
   - links on their own site to pages within the site

Is there any way that I can tell the on-rev server to substitute file on 
http requests ?
i.e. if a browser asks for abc.html, give it abc.irev

I can (or could if I looked it up) put in a redirect for abc.html to 
abc.rev - but I don't want to do that for each individual file, I'd like 
to do it in one place for all files (or, ideally, all files where the 
.html file doesn;t exist).

Thanks
-- Alex.
