Rather than using the ispell hash file included with AbiWord, delete it and
make a symlink to the one from the ispell pkg.
This makes the spelling checker work across platforms, including Alpha.

Multilingual GNU editing macros (editor)
It was based on Mule ports of FreeBSD and Emacs ports of NetBSD originally,
lots of changes are adapted as a result of discussion on
tech-pkg-ja@jp.NetBSD.ORG mailing list.
It doesn't have Lisp(that means very limited customization
is available). Since you can invoke it very quickly
(compared with real GNU Emacs), it is useful in dealing with
changing small file a bit.
Ng(Nihongo Micro Gnu Emacs) is a Mg(Micro Gnu Emacs)'s
japanese port. Ng supports EUC, JIS and SJIS code.
Ng also have (rather simple) C-mode.
It is also very useful even if you don't need Japanese support.

up with latest perl API. While here, modify the builds so that vile and
xvile don't conflict when xpkgwedge is installed.

make much sense. Replace it with a symlink to the version dependend
directory name, where real stuff is installed. This allows other
pkgs (i.e. net/zenicb) to add lisp modules easily.

Mg (mg) is a Public Domain EMACS style editor. It is "broadly"
compatible with GNU Emacs. Mg was formerly named MicroGnuEmacs,
but is not associated with the GNU project.
This program is intended to be a small, fast, and portable editor for
people who can't (or don't want to) run real Emacs.
