AFAIK Gnucap is not quite SPICE-compatible, but that's what your 
students will be facing when they head out into industry. LTSpice might 
be an alternative. Very short learning curve, free of cost, nice 
graphics output and by now very widespread in industry.

LTSpice probably runs under wine but try it out first, see if the help 
files are ok because students will certainly need those a lot.
