It's extremely handy for those of us who, for decades, have been used to the EMACS keystrokes and commands. But between FreeBSD 14.0 and 14.1, it seems to have dropped out of the port and package collections. It's very simple and stable code, so while it generates a few compiler warnings under the latest CLANG (which could be easily fixed; they mainly have to do with function prototypes) it still does compile and run perfectly. How can I request that it be reinstated?

Is it me or did you fully neglect to mention the name of the port here?  Could you share that?
