We don't have any package named "emacs" in our repositories, but
searching for it is possible and reveals some package names:

╰─➤  pkg list -a|grep emacs
SUNWgnu-emacs 23.1-0.133                 --r
SUNWgnu-emacs-el 23.1-0.133                 --r
SUNWgnu-emacs-gtk 23.1-0.133                 --r
SUNWgnu-emacs-nox 23.1-0.133                 --r
SUNWgnu-emacs-x 23.1-0.133                 --r
editor/gnu-emacs 27.2-2021.0.0.1            i--

editor/gnu-emacs/gnu-emacs-lisp 27.2-2021.0.0.1            ---

editor/gnu-emacs/gnu-emacs-x11 27.2-2021.0.0.1            ---

So, you might want to run "pfexec pkg install gnu-emacs" or something
similar depending on your needs.
You can ask for details about a (probably not yet installed package)
with eg. "pkg info -r gnu-emacs-gtk".

Regards,
Andreas
