Tera Term Pro seems to be pretty good, and it's a free program. I had
to tweak it's configuration a bit to get the keymapping the way I wanted

Tera Term Pro has an extension module called TTSSH available, which
gives it the capability to be a ssh client. I don't have it's site
address handy, but I believe the above-mentioned site has a link to it.
