gui i think

gnome has a number of MUD and MOO viewers that are pretty awesome. don't
know them offhand though.

In <4AEBD882.68.usenet_oslinux@sbbs.cyberchatnet.com> ,
"phil" <phil@sbbs.cyberchatnet.com.remove-l2d-this> mentions:

It's been AGES since I dealt with qwk (and SOUP) packets, but.. years ago,
I wrote a little script (in REXX no less!) that took such packets and
created/imported into a news spool.

One would imagine you could fairly easily inject qwk packets into a local news
spool/server and use a regular news reader with them. (wouldn't be that hard to
write.. the SOUP packet thing was a piece of cake)
