apache .htaccess redirect question

[aresgodofwar]

here is the root of my webspace:

lothclan

logs

lothnuke

what i want to do is work on my php nuke site while the current site is up. im not sure if my hoster supports .htaccess or not. however, right now my site www.lothclan.com points to the lothclan directory. i didn't set that by htaccess. that was done by the hoster.

what i would like to do is setup some kind of redirect so that when i type in www.lothclan.com/nuke it points to the lothnuke directory.

is this even possible? if so, how would the .htaccess file look? im having trouble with this.
