No DOOM 3 Editor in Linux

When DOOM 3 comes out, the map editor will be tied to the game. Someone emailed John Carmack to see if the editor would work in Linux too. Linux Games posted his answer. Here you are:

Unfortunately, it [the editor] is probably going to be a win32-only feature. We might support the possibility of building a separate, standalone linux version based off of the Radiant work, but it would lack the integration features, and we aren't committed to it. I would be happiest with complete support on all platforms, but the editor code has a bunch of win32 assumptions in it, and supporting a cross platform version would be more work than I can justify.
