When htdig filled up my root partition I wasn't sure how to shut it down. I ended up killing all the *dig jobs I saw. It would be nice to document the proper way to shut it down, and perhaps even provide a script to do so. I wanted to stop it so I could recover my disk space and move the files to a larger partition. I also second another wishlist item about providing a little more warning that this can chew up a lot of disk space.
