In the 2.8.2 docs, see 5.4 Default files. (Joshua is correct, but
users of other OS might like to see those docs for their own file
locations).
Changes made to these files will affect stuff in LilyPond. You can
modify these files using any text editor -- it could be pico or vim,
but it could also be notepad, TextEdit, or whatever.
References to these files are likely (hopefully!) only for reading
those files. I heavily recommend that you make customizations to your
own lilypond, not these files, since any changes you make would be lost
when you install a new version -- and if you send your .ly files to
anybody else, they would lack your changes.
See 4.6 Style sheets in the 2.8.2 docs for more info about setting
personal defaults.
Cheers,

If your LilyPond.app is in Applications, they are at:
/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/share/lilypond/current/
scm/
I'm not sure, though, if changes you make to these files you be
reflected in your app, since what LilyPond.app launches is probably (I
don't know for sure) the lilypond executable at:
/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond
Whether or not the executable looks for changes in the scm files is
probably best answered by a developer.

I see a lot of emails on the list and in the archive addressing
modifying the ".scm" and other files to change one preference or
another. My question is, on Mac OS X, where are these files located?
I have a hunch that I alter them in pico, vim or TextEdit.
Thanks in advance,
