It's in the ports tree "ports/x11/xforms" .

This is from pkg/DESCR:
This is the binary distribution of XForms, a graphical user interface
toolkit for X Window Systems. It should work under X11 R4, R5 & R6.

There is also a program "fdesign" in the port to make a GUI interactive.
I played last week with the new 0.81 release and it looks good for me.
Try the demos in it to see more !
