Yes, SciTE is great for editing POV-Ray files.

I have the following in my /usr/share/scite/pov.properties...

command.compile.*.pov=povray +P +W320 +H240 $(FileNameExt)
command.build.*.pov=povray +P +W800 +H600 $(FileNameExt)
command.go.*.pov=povray +P +W1332 +H999 +AM2 +A $(FileNameExt)


...which then let's me launch various different qualities of renders 
directly from the editor using the function key short cuts.

SciTE even shows you the povray output in a small pane to the right of 
the editor, so it's easy to see mistakes in the SDL code if there are 
any or to track the progress of the render.
