thanks - I guess I had missed it in the docs ... Which btw don't mention 
what signal is to be sent to interrupt : a simple kill or a kill -s INT ?

Next question : how do I know when the crawl has finished to do merge etc 
?

My idea :

repeat forever
do
start crawl at 1.15 am (using a work db)
pause crawl at 6.15 am
until done
merge databases
end repeat

thanks a bunch
