Description

Many users do not have regular access to the web. Generally help pages are available locally as a part of the installation. It is therefore preferable to use local files rather than going to grass website. Alternatively, it could check for local files, and if not found, try the online resources.

Hello,

I am currently working on this...
For the moment, I have make a local search for grass7 documentation for MS-Windows (based on OsGeo4W paths) and major GNU/Linux distributions (Debian and its derivatives, Fedora and openSuse).

I need to know where the grass7 documentation is stored on MacOsX (can't find it myself as I don't (want to) have a Mac). Does anybody knows where I can find this (for GRASS7 at least) ?
