Freemacs is a small, programmable computer text editor for MS-DOS with some degree of compatibility with Emacs for DOS[1], written by Russ Nelson and later maintained by Jim Hall. Freemacs is included in the FreeDOS project. It is currently without a maintainer.

Freemac's executable binary in the current 1.6 version is only ~21k in size. Most features are implemented in MINT (Mint Is Not Trac), a "string-oriented language", whose role is akin to that of Emacs Lisp as used by other implementations of Emacs.

Released under terms equivalent to those of the GNU General Public License, Freemacs is free and open source software.
