+TkGate is a digital circuit editor and simulator with a Tcl/Tk based
+interface. TkGate includes a large number of built-in devices
+including basic gates, memories, ttys and modules for hierarchical
+design. The simulator can be controlled either interactively or
+through a simulation script. Memory contents can be loaded from
+files, and a microcode/macrocode compiler (gmac) is included to create
+tkgate memory files from a high-level description. The simulator
+supports continous simulation, single step simulation (by clock or
+epoch) and breakpoints. Save files are in a Verilog-like format.
+
+TkGate also includes a number of tutorial and example circuits which
+can be loaded through the "Help" menu. The examples range from a
+simple gate-level 3-bit adder to a 16-bit CPU programmed to play the
+"Animals" game.
+
+TkGate has a multi-langauge interface with support for English,
+Japanese, French and Spanish.
