As they would say in New England "yah can't get there from here."

In 3.1.5 if you want one database, you'll have to accept that updates 
will occur on all URLs.

However, you could have separate databases for each group you want to 
update and then use htmerge -m to merge them two-at-a-time until you 
have the one database for searching.

In 3.2 there are a few ways of doing this, by specifying the list of 
URLs through standard input, or by using -m and a file of URLs 
specifying the exact list of URLs to update/index. (The latter was 
broken until this last snapshot.)
