Re: Where is the data directory on Mac OS X?

[John MacFarlane <jgm-TVLZxgkOlNX2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org>]

Note that if you installed pandoc via the OSX package we
provide, the version there has its data files baked
into the executable, so you won't find them on the file
system.

To see their contents or get copies, use pandoc with the
`--print-default-data-file=FILE` option.  For templates,
you can use `-D FORMAT`, e.g. `-D latex`.

You can have pandoc use a modified template instead of its
default either by explicitly specifying it using
`--template` on the command line or by putting the
modified template in your ~/.pandoc/templates directory
(which you may need to create).  The template should
be named default.FORMAT.
