You'll need to be a bit more specific about what you're trying to do.
'generating ISOs' (from a directory tree) is handled by mkisofs, as suggested 
by the other posters. I guess a lot of people (m'self included) on here
never use Nero, so some more info on how you make use of it's 'Image
Writer' function would help.. 

cdrdao will allow you to burn CUE/BIN format to a disc, but I'm not sure about 
redirecting output to an image file as apposed to a physical device, so you
could later recover a regular ISO form it.. is that yr goal?

otoh, the formats are probably not terribly complicated - isos can be
prepared from a physical disk like so with dd:

# dd if=/dev/cdrom of=~/mydisc.iso

I'd guess the BIN part of CUE/BIN is very simillar, afaik BIN is just
images of consecutive tracks concattenated and CUE is a plaintext index of
htese tracks.
