I started such a tool recently. It is probably not suckless, as it is already 1600 loc, but can properly display a man page, colour escape codes and content from UTF-8-test.txt and UTF8-demo.txt without ncurses.

If this one sucks, I would be glad to see the implementation, as I will learn a lot from it.
I have also seen rirc (irc client) that does not use ncurses for its interface.
