Emacs is an extensible computing environment primarily known for its text editing capabilities, but its potential extends far beyond that.

One of the greatest strengths of Emacs is its endless customizability, making it an incredibly powerful tool.
In this post, I'll cover two options for installing Emacs on FreeBSD: the "pkg" command for a quick and easy installation, and the Ports Collection for greater control and customization.
