The spelling checker uses MySpell dictionaries -- the same ones that OpenOffice and NeoOffice use. Unfortunately, they bury them in their application bundles, so you can find them to [http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Dictionaries download here]. You need to install them in /Library/Dictionaries, and you'll need to authenticate as an administrator to do so. If you have one of them installed and know how to make symbolic links from the command line, you'll find them in Contents/share/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages, scattered about in the hash-named directories. You'll need to link both the aff and dic files (e.g., en_US.aff and en_US.dic).
 
== A Note on Backups ==
 
The first binary GRAMPS is built from gramps-3.1.2. If this reads an existing database from an earlier version of GRAMPS (like Macports) it will demand to do a database conversion, and there is no way to reverse this step. It is thus good practice when installing this binary GRAMPS on a system with an existing gramps database, first, to use Apple Time Machine to create backups, and second, to set aside a specific backup of an old GRAMPS database in case anything goes badly wrong. See the note at the top of the page for instructions.
