TextMate is a text editor for macOS that has been gaining popularity for its simplicity and powerful features. While it was originally designed for macOS, it can also be installed on FreeBSD. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the steps to install TextMate on FreeBSD latest version.
Before getting started, you should have access to a FreeBSD computer with a terminal, as well as a text editor. You should also have root access, or access to a user with sudo privileges.
TextMate has a few dependencies that need to be installed prior to its installation. To install these dependencies, run the following command:
sudo pkg install python py37-pyobjc-core py37-pyobjc-framework-Cocoa
To download and install TextMate on your FreeBSD machine, follow these steps:
sudo make install [DESTDIR=/path/to/destination]
Note: If you want to install TextMate in a specific location, specify the destination directory using the DESTDIR variable.

TextMate is now ready to use, and you can start taking advantage of its many features, such as its powerful search and replace functionality, full support for Regular Expressions, and its ability to integrate with other tools and languages.
