I haven't looked at this package at all, but it appeared on 
freshmeat.net yesterday and its description seems to match what you're 
looking for.

 From the home page:
"gtermix is a gtk+ telnet client intended for calling BBSes. It 
utilizes a custom VGA textmode emulating terminal widget that allows it 
to accurately render bulletin board systems as they were in DOS 
terminal programs."
