Unless you require any special xterm features, both rxvt and the
new(ish) mintty make good replacements for it that do not require an X
server to be running. None of these are full Windows console
replacements.

I don't think <Insert> on its own works, not in the default config
anyway. <Shift-Insert> does work in all of these terminals though, as
does clicking on the middle mouse button or wheel.
