The Grugq wrote a post [1] discussing TrueCrypt alternatives back in October of last year. It also mentions tc-play and cryptsetup, but additionally mentions tomb [2], which looks very interesting to me.

But while I once wrote for my mom a document with step-by-step instructions on how to create and use a TrueCrypt volume to keep some work documents secured, I don't see any alternative in either post that is going to be as accessible to normal folks (like her) as TrueCrypt.

No reason you can't write a script that automates cryptsetup/luks, or a UI for PySkein or Java Skein, or the plenty of Keccak implementations.
