^ Python scripting language
Available with an interactive Python session:
:~$ python3
Python 3.8.5 (default, Jul 28 2020, 12:59:40)
[GCC 9.3.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> credits
Thanks to CWI, CNRI, BeOpen.com, Zope Corporation and a cast of thousands
for supporting Python development. See www.python.org for more information.
>>> help
Type help() for interactive help, or help(object) for help about object.
>>> help()
Welcome to Python 3.8's help utility!
If this is your first time using Python, you should definitely check out
the tutorial on the Internet at https://docs.python.org/3.8/tutorial/.
Enter the name of any module, keyword, or topic to get help on writing
Python programs and using Python modules. To quit this help utility and
return to the interpreter, just type "quit".
To get a list of available modules, keywords, symbols, or topics, type
"modules", "keywords", "symbols", or "topics". Each module also comes
with a one-line summary of what it does; to list the modules whose name
or summary contain a given string such as "spam", type "modules spam".
help> help modules
No Python documentation found for 'help modules'.
Use help() to get the interactive help utility.
Use help(str) for help on the str class.
help> modules
Please wait a moment while I gather a list of all available modules...

" Well, there is also a Verilog IDE which runs on Linux: https://github.com/rochus-keller/VerilogCreator/blob/master/README.md
And I'm not sure what you mean by "reasonable sized mainstream FPGAs", but there is a full open source toolchain e.g. for Lattice ECP5 and also the Xilinx 7-series will be supported soon. "
