Important Do not depend on the scrollback pane to save data. As you fill
available memory, the oldest contents of the scrollback pane are removed. If
you choose Save from the File menu, copies of the scrollback pane you saved
earlier are overwritten and data may be lost. To store incoming data safely,
capture it directly to a file. See the next section, “Capturing incoming data.”
You can change the characteristics of the scrollback pane to suit the way you
work.
To Do this

scrollback pane Choose Show Scrollback or Hide Scrollback from the Settings menu.

the scrollback pane into
another document Select the contents and choose Copy from the Edit menu.

scrollback pane Choose Clear Saved Lines from the Session menu.

data to store Choose Preferences from the Edit menu. In the Preferences
dialog box, choose Communications from the Topic pop-up
menu. Select a memory option from the Scrollback pop-up
menu, and then click OK.
