Mac OS X: terminology and detail
There are other ways to install Gramps for MS Windows, but these are much more complicated and are not covered here.
=== Mac OS X MacOS ===
Mac OS X MacOS is a [[Download|community supported]] platform. If you download the Mac OS X MacOS disk image (.dmg), then you simply drag the application to your application folder (or anywhere else you want to store it) and start Gramps by double clicking on the application in the normal way. The Homebrew package manager[https://github.com/Homebrew] also allows for installation of the application in the usual Applications folder.
To run from the command line, you'll need to start Terminal, found in the Utilities folder of the main Applications folder (/Applications:/Utilities).Once you have a terminal window open, at the prompt type
/path/to/Gramps.app/Contents/MacOS/Gramps
If you installed Gramps in Applications along with most of your other apps, as suggested above, that would be
/Applications/Gramps.app/Contents/MacOS/Gramps
You may use any of the command-line options along with this. For example, to get a detailed listing of all of the Family Tree databases in your default Family Tree folder, you would use
/Applications/Gramps.app/Content/MacOS/Gramps -L
