Emacs Lisp ports framework: Overhaul This overhaul introduces four key changes to the elisp ports framework: 1. Remove support for packaged byte-compiled elisp. The primary motivation is to remove a large number of flavor-specific packages and to simplify the ports tree. As an example, supporting byte-compiled elisp for devel/tablist required six packages, one for each flavor of editors/emacs and editors/emacs-devel. With over 100 elisp ports and requests for new Emacs flavors, this was unmanageable. 2. Install configuration to integrate with Emacs's native compilation machinery, allowing elisp from ports to be compiled into the standard cache under the user's home directory. This matches the behavior of GNU ELPA packages and generally results in a faster experience. Speedups vary depending on the characteristics of the elisp code, but are often reported to be 2.5 to 5 times faster than byte-compiled code. 3. Perform byte compilation on the target host, but only when native compilation is unavailable. Compilation is initiated when Emacs starts, and the resulting .elc files are cached under the user's home directory. 4. Load all autoload files installed by FreeBSD elisp ports. This mirrors what package.el does for ELPA packages, ensuring that autoloaded functions are available without requiring users to explicitly load each package. Users with elisp packages (*-emacs_*) installed should consult the 2026-04-11 UPDATING entry for instructions on handling the transition.

comms/emacs-eat: Ensure Emacs version matches byte-compiled elisp Change USES=emacs:build to USES=emacs. This creates separate flavors with a run-time dependency on the corresponding version of editors/emacs or editors/emacs-devel. As a result, elisp is compiled and run under the same Emacs version, avoiding potential subtle breakage caused by version mismatches in byte-compiled files. While here, fix a typo in pkg-descr.

comms/emacs-eat: Emulate A Terminal Eat's name is self-explanatory, it stands for "Emulate A Terminal". Eat is a terminal emulator. It can run most (if not all) full-screen terminal programs, including Emacs. It is pretty fast, more than three times faster than Term, despite being implemented entirely in Emacs Lisp. So fast that you can comfortably run Emacs inside Eat, or even use your Emacs as a terminal multiplexer. It has many features that other Emacs terminal emulator still don't have, for example Sixel support, complete mouse support, shell integration, etc. WWW: https://codeberg.org/akib/emacs-eat PR: 290546c16273eec2
