There are probably more editors available for Linux than just about anything else. (I think Debian packages 42 of them, or some such large number.) There are the vi clones, such as vim or elvis. Then there's jed, joe, THE (can be made to look like XEDIT), and probably many more besides. If, by "heavy editing environment" you mean a software development shop, you may want to look into some of the various IDEs that are available. Myself, I would tend to go with a Linux desktop and mounting an NFS export from the system where the files need to live.
