some of the q2 mapper programs have gl viewers so you can view the maps in a q2 type of setting, if that's what you're looking for

Hmm, you mean seeing a preview of the .bsp file without starting Quake2?
I once found a little program (MapProp) that could do something like that, but... it only works with .map files (so probably not with compiled .bsp's). http://bpeers.com/software/mapprop/

Like seanz0r suggested there is a mapeditor (Quark) that can load .bsp's but that takes a lot longer than just starting the game and actually loading the maps. So I'm afraid that the quickest way of sifting through maps would be to keep your baseq2/maps dir open in a window and just Alt+Tab between Q2 and the maps dir and load them manually :(

I've been sick with Q2 since 2007. It's incurable.
Dying and reviving is common. It's a shame the QT was good.
