Is there an editor like emacs, vim, etc. but (solely) used in the BSD world?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/BSD

  • nvi2

    A multibyte fork of the nvi editor for BSD

  • oed

    Portable OpenBSD ed(1) editor.

  • ed(1) on BSD is distinct from GNU ed (which broke some of my common usage patterns in version 1.14). However, it is portable so could be built on Linux if you want. :-)

  • kakoune

    mawww's experiment for a better code editor

  • Kakoune fails your request on two counts: * It's not BSD-anything * It's not licensed; Unlicense is not a license, but a public-domain statement.

  • mg

    Micro (GNU) Emacs-like text editor ❤️ public-domain

  • mg (MicroGNUEmacs) despite the name is not affiliated with GNU and is a fork of MicroEmacs which is a clone of GNU Emacs. Basically it’s a lightweight, portable, emacs-style editor maintained by OpenBSD with a public domain license. https://github.com/troglobit/mg/

  • jove

    Jonathan's Own Version of Emacs : a venerable (1983?), fast, small Emacs clone that was originally written for 2.8BSD on PDP-11. Some of us have been using and contributing to it since 1986. (by jonmacs)

  • One of the many versions of emacs called JOVE is one that I used for many years until computers got fast enough that running full GNU emacs for even tiny edits was quick. I no longer use it. It has a long history in BSD systems.
