(pkg removed it) This is really a question for the freebsd-ports@ list. xemacs was removed not specifically because of pkg(8) but because no-one cared enough about it to bring it up to the expected current standards for a port. It's not going to magically reappear unless someone with an interest in having it in the ports tree steps up and knocks it into shape. That's not hugely difficult, but it does require some skills with using subversion plus ability with shell and makefile programming. Cheers, Matthew --=20 Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil.
