What is TkGate?
TkGate is a event driven digital circuit simulator with a tcl/tk-based graphical editor. TkGate supports a wide range of primitive circuit elements as well as user-defined modules for hierarchical design. The distribution comes with a number of tutorial and example circuits which can be loaded through the "Help" menu. The example circuits include a simple CPU, programmed to run the Animals game.
The original website is no longer active. Last version, 1.8.5, released in September 2004, can be still downloaded from SourceForge

Said about TkGate as an alternative
The project has been picked up again, and has great support for packing subcircuits into the same file. Interface feels outdated, but overall it has an excellent number of features.

It had a great tutorial that you could follow along, even as a novice. It was ugly, but very easy to learn and work with. I'm sorry to see it has been discontinued, but perhaps with open source, someone will resurrect it.
