Hi Yuma,

I don't have an answer as such for your question.  However I might
suggest that if you are not using fullscreen terminal apps you may find
that shell mode in emacs using emacspeak is much more accessible.

you can use incremental search to move back through the output to find
what you are looking for.  I find it is much more comfortable than
trying to use the terminal.  That of course may be because I am not
that familiar with the terminal.

Just another option.

Cheers

Bart
