It's not entirely clear what you want but this might help:

command &>somefile
	should send all output from command to somefile (bash shells)
command | tee somefile
	should copy all output from command to somefile
screen
	is an interactive shell multiplexer which can do many things
	including logging all of your shell to a file, scrolling back
	to search/copy/paste through shell history, etc.
