I have two crawl scripts with different parameter sets (depth, urls, etc.) that I need to merge.  I have successfully used the SegmentMergeTool to create a combined segment.  However, this new merged segment does not appear in the directory structure with an index as I expected.  Each of my segments that I am merging have the following directory structure:

crawlDir
   /segments
   /index
   /db

The SegmentMergeTool simply produces another segment directory named using a timestamp (/20050216...).  I see that SegmentMergeTool has an index flag (-i) but that seems to only create an index inside of the segment directory.  What do I do with this new segment to create a top-level index for it?  Do I even need to do this?  I have yet to figure out a way for my code to access this newly merged segment.

What am I missing?
