(In reply to mail from comment #1)

Hey thanks for the hint, however should we maybe use the Torvalds version?

https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs

Changes are:

https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs/commits/master

Especially the "Allow bigger filenames" from 80 to 256 makes sense.
Comment 3 mail 2022-08-10 08:48:38 UTC
IIRC the Torvalds version is a fork of 3.9 (which predates 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 & 4.0), so is significantly different to version 4.0 that editors/uemacs builds from, therefore it probably warrants being a separate port.

I can't say I've ever noticed the 80 character filename limit but admittedly I don't use MicroEMACS much any more. Back my OS/2 days it was my editor of choice so it's nice to have it around for nostalgia if nothing else. Of course the FreeBSD port could be patched to fix the filename bug.
