I think you would be better off getting the standard output into
a scratch buffer, then you can page up/down, and search, copy
etc using Vim. You can also arrange that pressing Esc (say)
closes the window showing the scratch buffer to easily dismiss
it. I haven't checked whether the following is actually helpful
for your aim, but it looks likely:

It might also be good to use the preview window, example:
