printing the serial terminal screen contents

I want to print the serial terminal screen data. I can't seem to copy it and paste it some where else for printing.

Any tips on how to do this? Maybe a print button on it would be a good idea?

If you have data sent in a fairly continuous burst with no breaks greater than 5 seconds in data transmission, another option is to use the DataLink terminal window accessed with the [F9] key.
Primarily intended for use with the datalogger mode but it can work.

When your data is downloaded you wait 5 seconds for receive mode to stop and can then save the data as a .csv file that for example Excel can read.

Not sure on the kbytes capacity of the Datalink terminal screen but has sufficed for some of my tasks to record data.
