Encore has implemented a version of supdup in their Annex ethernet
TCP/IP terminal server. And they do include a hacked version of GNU Emacs
that uses the protocol (Encore calls it "leap" instead of "supdup").
It works just fine, but the start-up time increases, and you must specify
leap mode when you start the editor. Otherwise GNU Emacs will do all editing
by itself.
