Port details
wordgrinderSimple Unicode-aware console and X11-based word processor
0.6_2editorsΣ=1 0.6_2Version of this port present on the latest quarterly branch.
BROKEN: Fails to build with llvm16 use of undeclared identifier 'KEY_EVENT' DEPRECATED: broken since 2023, maintainer AWOL This port expired on: 2026-03-31 IGNORE: is marked as broken: Fails to build with llvm16 use of undeclared identifier 'KEY_EVENT'
WordGrinder is an ultra-clean and uncluttered word processor
that runs in a terminal or an X11 window.
The author made WordGrinder to have something to write novels
on. It supports just enough character and paragraph style support
to let you get the job done, while not enough to let you waste
time configuring them.
===> The following configuration options are available for wordgrinder-0.6_2:
X11=on: Support running in an X window in addition to console
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
editors/wordgrinder: broken on 15 too, deprecate
This port can likely be saved as upstream is still alive and a
newer version (0.8) exists.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

USES=lua gained flavors.
Ports using USES=lua:module or lua:flavors will be flavored. A range of
supported lua versions can be set using XX-YY (or XX-, or -YY, or simply ZZ)
for ports not supporting all lua versions.
USES=lua sets LUA_FLAVOR that needs to be used on all dependencies of
flavored lua ports, in a similar way as PHP or Python flavors.

Add USES=xorg and USES=gl to ports in categories starting with 'e' and 'g'.
While here, try to sprinkle other USES (mostly gnome and sdl) as needed.
Remove indefinite articles and trailing periods from COMMENT, plus

WordGrinder is a simple, Unicode-aware word processor that runs on the
console. It's designed to get the hell out of your way and let you write;
it does very little, but what it does it does well.
It supports basic paragraph styles, basic character styles, basic screen
markup, a menu interface that means you don't have to remember complex
key sequences, HTML import and export, and some other useful features.
WordGrinder does not require X. It runs in a terminal.
