Putty is almost certainly a better terminal emulator than TTSSH
(supports UTF-8 for modern systems, at least), and supports the SSH2
protocol.

Because private key file format differ, you will want to generate the
keys on the client, rather than the server.  TTSSH doesn't provide a key
generator, so you can only use it if the private key file format of
OpenSSH is compatible (and it could be...)

The private key can reside anywhere on the client PC, just tell the
client application where it is.  The public key must be in
$HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys on the server, and that file should be mode
0644.
