OReilly ran a column by [Jonathan Knudsen] back in 2000. He also provided a list of references, and wrote one of the books - ISBN:1-56592-692-7 .
official software is only for Ms Windows, but it smells like there are various hacks (e.g. for LinuxOS which includes a PyThon library) available, and you can work with various languages (MIT has its own LoGo implementation, with a visual GUI that's for [MacOS]).
books
package for schools (sounds a little over-programmed vs exploratory) (there are other Lego-for-schools programs)
good unofficial info
good techie overview
