Well, i wish there would by something like that for Linux. Some of them can compile the games for Linux, but the tools are Win-only.

Torque did build and run (In-game editor an all) on Linux back in the day, although support was always iffy (not sure if that's pre-Torque3D or not) - maybe open-sourcing will bring out some Linux hackers to shore that back up.
