Surely there's an app out there somewhere that can fulfill my needs... any suggestions?
I think you have tried all that I know, unfortunately when in comes to integrated coding tools, Linux and BSD are still a long way behind, having only recently broken away from only having one professional WYSIWYG word processor, (namely word perfect a market looser!) it has yet to gain more than 1 good integrated development environments that I know for C++. Java is an exception to this trend though. I would expect in the natural order of things this would be true of word processors followed by coding tools will get the User Focused treatment that is common to MacIntosh's and Windows tools such as MS-Word (Even though I hate it) and Rational Rose.
Fresh-meat is a good place to hunt, but even the Borland port of Delphi is based upon wine, the trick is to pay for code weavers libraries rather than go for straight wine, in my opinion.
The great thing about MS-Windows apps that run on it not the win32 API, but this Linux nedit/vi(m) user always uses XSL and XML or raw HTML for writing web sites.

As you can see its none to professional, but I am lucky as content is what counts on my site.
I still dont recomend using the system outside datagrid yet though
