	21	1. '''[optional]''' Symlink ''/usr/bin/tv_grab_au'' to Shepherd. This enables ''mythfilldatabase'' to call Shepherd automatically. Also, it's sometimes convenient to invoke Shepherd with a simple ''tv_grab_au'' command:
22	22	{{{
23	23	sudo ln -s ~/.shepherd/shepherd /usr/bin/tv_grab_au
24	24	}}}
25	25	1. '''[optional]''' You may delete the original Shepherd file you downloaded (leaving the newly installed version in ''~/.shepherd/'').
	26	1. '''[optional]''' You can test Shepherd (relatively) quickly by asking it to gather data for just today. At the end of this command, you will have guide data in '''~/.shepherd/output.xmltv''':
	27	{{{
	28	~/.shepherd/shepherd --days 1
	29	}}}
26	30	1. '''[optional]''' If you'd like Shepherd to provide you with some [wiki:channel_icons channel icons], set these up:
27	31	{{{
28		~/.shepherd/shepherd --set-icons
	32	~/.shepherd/shepherd --set-icons
29	33	}}}
30	34	1. '''[optional]''' Install [wiki:Installation#OptionalSoftware:Tor Tor] if you wish to increase the speed of some grabbers. (Note: most grabbers don't use Tor, so for most users at this time the benefit is marginal.)
