You might take a look at Activestate to see about a .NET add-in. 

Also, Activestate has Komodo which isn't too bad. It's like PythonWin
on steroids.

A lot of people seem to like JEdit. It runs on nearly any platform
that can run Java. I've done a little bit of HTML editing using it. It
seem pretty good.

I don't know if I'd call 'em IDEs but it's worth taking the time to
learn either emacs or vim. Both are very powerful editors that run on
multiple platforms. I tried emacs three times, but couldn't get into
it. I'm now getting hooked on vim. YMMV.

Others that I've heard good things about are Eclipse and Scite.
