Hey,
  If vi/vim/gvim are out then the default Ubuntu text editor gedit is
actually quite good having plenty of add on modules for syntax highlighting
etc.
  If you're looking for a more complete IDE then there is Eclipse
based Aptana which looks pretty good and one of my collegues swears by. It's
a java app, so you can use it in linux/windows/mac.

cheers,
Owen.
