I have to throw in a plug for Eclipse.  Works fine on
Linux, as well as Windows, Mac, and several other platforms.

That's one nice thing about Eclipse... as "java-centric" as it is,
it's not limited to Java.  It can be extended to support
working with any language, and plugins already exist for many.
There'd definitely a Perl environment for Eclipse, and I think
there is PHP as well... in addition to the obvious stuff
like Java, C, and C++.

There are also plugins for Eclipse for some of the other
languages that are popular in the FOSS world, like Ruby,
Python, etc., if that's important to you.

TTYL,
