In a single shell script, you can call swish-e multiple times:


----------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash

MAILTO="address_to_email_on_error@mydomain.com"
PERL5LIB="$PERL5LIB:/usr/local/my_swish_install/lib/perl5"
PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/my_swish_install/bin"

cd /path/to/search1/dir
swish-e -c search1.conf -S prog

cd /path/to/search2/dir
swish-e -c search2.conf -S fs

cd /path/to/search3/dir
swish-e -c search3.conf -S prog
----------------------------------------------------------

Then you simply call this shell script from your cron job.

Of course, you'd want to have tests in there to handle errors.  For
example, you might put the following code right after each call to
swish-e:

   if [ $? != 0 ];
   then
       echo "I got an error!"
       exit 1
   fi

Hope this helps,
