Capture a scrolling window?


Can someone help me I am trying to capture a scrolling window, example terminal that has about 90 lines of info.

I am running Ubuntu 7.04 and have installed Imagemagick but can only take normal window (no scrolling).

How about piping it to more or less ?
For example: ls -al | less

Sorry don't understand you, my knowledge of linux commands are limited. What I want to do is insert a long text file on a forum page that instead of being xxx lines long a smaller view that you can scroll to read it (if that makes any sense?)
