Here, strictly speaking you should escape the period in "php.ini" ("php.ini"), and if unsure whether it has a number in it (php5.ini, php7.ini, whatever), you could simply use "php.?.ini" instead.

Argh, I didn't escape the backslashes, I meant "php\.ini" or "php.?\.ini".

This example was taken from the WP Codex so suggestions should be made there, to this doc: https://codex.wordpress.org/htaccess
