I've moved an entire directory to another location in my site. How can I redirect any request (to any file or folder) within that directory, to the index page of the new folder?
Thanks!

Just try
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/new_directory/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /new_directory/$1 [L]
(assuming the new_directory is directly under your root, in the same domain)

Hmm, not certain how that works. I see new_directory twice. If the existing directory on the first line?

(assuming the new_directory is directly under your root, in the same domain) The fisrt line is a condition, which prevents continuous redirects to the new_directory, after a successful redirect. ie, it simply skips the redirect, if the request is actually to the new_directory.
