Off the top of my head, I don't know.  What I do know is that screen is
scary with the number of options and features that it has.  The keyboard
sequence I listed below initiates "copy mode".  I would be surprised if
it could not be made to do what you want it to.

man screen, http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/screen-users are probably
two places to start first.  A google of gnu screen should get a lot of hits.

Cheers,
