Mac OS X is Unix, so you should look at the Unix directions in the manual,
not the Windows directions.
The locations of the option files are documented in the manual
<http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Option_files.html>. Global options
usually go in /etc/my.cnf, server-specific options go in
/path/to/mysql/datadir/my.cnf.
