The OpenBSD project now maintains mg(1), but it did not originate there. From the README:
Code:
Mg (mg) is a Public Domain EMACS style editor.  It is "broadly"
compatible with GNU Emacs, the latest creation of Richard M.
Stallman, Chief GNUisance and inventor of Emacs.  GNU Emacs (and other
portions of GNU as they are released) are essentially free, (there are
handling charges for obtaining it) and so is Mg.  You may never have
to learn another editor.  (But probably will, at least long enough to
port Mg...)  Mg was formerly named MicroGnuEmacs, the name change was
done at the request of Richard Stallman.
For entertainment:
  • Invoke the editor.
  • Enter "Alt-x theo" & press "Return" twice.
  • Continuing to press "Return" displays notable random quotes from Theo de Raadt.
  • Entering "Ctrl-x Ctrl-c" exits the editor.
All quotes/rants can be found in mg's theo.c.
