.htaccess wrong documentated in user guide?

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
user guide says:

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

Doesn't that need to be: ?

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

Only the second version works for me..
