The usual method of doing that is to use the :redir command, as in
this example.

    :set nomore
    :redir @a
    :ls
    :redir END
    :set more

Now the output of the :ls command is in the "a register, which you
can put into a buffer for viewing, editing and/or using as arguments
to other commands.  See

    :help redir

to learn about other places that the :redir output can be sent.

HTH,
Gary
