I use PuTTY, but it needs some improvements

1. Opening a new session should not require using the mouse.
2. Shortcuts/sessions are clumsy at best.
3. Tabs are useful for organizing logically groups of terminals (I’m ssh-ed into the web, app and DB server for the “dev” environment).
4. Scripting. I found the -m switch, but it runs the commands and then exits. I wanted to have it run and stay open so I could script a shortcut that would take me to a specific location (say dev logs).
5. Auto login. I found -l and -pw so it works pretty good, but the password is unencrypted. I guess that’s what keys are for. Oh well.
6. Session properties/settings are hard to apply/create.
7. Terms used for SSH tunnels are confusing.
