How to stop server (hg serve) ?

I am occasionally using hg serve; however I found no way to terminate the server.

If I start it in foreground, I can terminate the shell, which stops the server (OS X, btw). But when I start it with

hg serve -d 

in demon mode, there seems to be no way to stop the server without rebooting or killing the job from the terminal; but I could not find the job (unfortunately there are a lot of jobs running in OS X...)

So to conclude: is there a reason, why there is no

hg serve --stop

or

hg serve --shutdown

command?


thanks!
