I use vim on Linux (as well as, if needed, on OSX and on FreeBSD). Surely it does syntax highlighting for Python/Cython and with a small effort for Sage (as it's basically Python, language-wise) too... I know people using atom for the same purpose (and yes, emacs for sure). Vim and emacs run, natively, on Windows.
