This appendix provides the reference to the Gramps user directory available on various operating systems.
POSIX - style systems
The default user directory location for Gramps in a POSIX-style environment is:
/home/<~username>/.gramps
This is true for BSD, Linux, Solaris, Unix and Mac OS-X when using Mac OS X Build from source.
Mac OS X
On Macs, filenames starting with "." do not show up in Finder. To make access to the Gramps user directory easy, open a terminal window with Finder-Applications-Utilities-Terminal and type there
ln -s .gramps gramps_user_directory
which will allow Finder to show the contents. Or simply click on Go -> 'Go to Folder...' in the Finder, and type
~/.gramps
in the Go to Folder dialog box.
The default location for the Mac OS X:Application package is
/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/gramps
MS Windows
The default location for an installation on a Windows 7 and higher system is
C:\Program Files\GrampsAIOXX-4.X.X
The default location for an user data on a Windows 7 and higher system is
C:\Users\<~username>\AppData\Roaming\gramps
On Windows XP and earlier for user data, it is
C:\Documents and Settings\<~username>\Application Data\gramps
