Looking for Freeware terminal emulator with macro function

Hi

I'm looking for a terminal emulator freeware (like Putty or possibly QVTerm)
that could program a macro or a series of commands/instructions that's
sent to the host server :

The macro or series of instructions I plan to take are :
a) login using ssh into the server
b) run repeatedly the server's OS commands :
date
netstat -an | grep 1521
df -k
c)I plan to do "screen capture" to capture

The set of commands in step (b) above will be repeated
continuously & I will stop it manually (by exiting the terminal
emulator) once I'm done capturing enough info

Appreciate if you can give me some instructions on how to get
this going quickly for the freeware that you've recommended

tks

Well, actually I'm not trying to capture those outputs in a Unix server,
it's a customized Unix that don't have "watch"/"tail" that runs on
Netapp's Filer : they have weird commands but I need to be able
to run the custom Unix commands repeatedly with 10 seconds
pause in between before repeating the same set of commands
all over again
