→How to Download and run the binary gramps application for Mac
which should create a directory, gramps_user_directory, showing the gramps database in Finder. (That's dot-gramps in that command!) Hitting Copy then Paste on this directory in finder will create an explicit backup, gramps_user_directory copy. [Does this actually work with a symbolic link? I'm not at a Mac to try it!] It is ''unfortunate'' that the current Macports gramps crashes if it is used to produce a backup archive.
The gramps application takes its working language from the System Preferences - International settings for the Desktop. If the list of desired languages there shows Esperanto - Russian - Dutch French - English then Gramps should work in Esperanto. If that translation isn't available for a particular phrase, it should produce Russian. If that's not available for a particular phrase (in the place completion tool, for example) then Gramps should produce French, and then eventually English.
The plugins directory of the .gramps user directory should be visible in Finder using the gramps_user_directory described above for backup. Placing plugins in there should work for most existing plugins, and can be done with the Finder straight from a download.
