    If you use screen you can then use the scrollback it provides

Or adjust your terminal preferences to have a lot of scrollback room. The defaults tend to be in the range of 0 to 500 lines. I often set the value to 30,000 or more, with no noticeable bad effects.

Hmmm, whatever you set it to, you will be a few lines short. The error will always be just above what you can scroll back to. lol
