Yeah, not all packages have -nox11 port due to current infrastructure
and design as previously mentioned.
You may want to check vim-lite if it fits your need. At least it does for me.
Though honestly, unlike building from ports, upgrading from pkgng is
much cheaper (and greener) apart of bandwidth requirement, so I don't
find installing few additional packages to be a problem.
