I don't know whether CodeSmith runs on Mono, though it must be able to
generate code that will run on Mono, so if you're writing code on
Windows, then it might be a good choice.

If you're in Linux/Mac, or you need more flexibility to customise and
ship the generator, then check out Mono's implementation of Visual
Studio's T4 (Text Template Transformation Toolkit) system:
