Feature Request: Save All Text (instead of Select All + Save Selected Text)

Feature request: Allow us to simply dump the entire session buffer to a file, instead of doing Select All and then Save Selected Text (or doing a Paste into e.g., Sublime Text).

Sometimes I run a lengthy script and want to get all the output safely stashed away to a file (where I can then grep through or otherwise slice & dice it). The current way, which involves Select All (hello, beachball) and then Shell > Save Selected Text or pasting into Sublime (hello, dimming lights and slowing down elevators). Seems like there's really no reason for the (cpu/memory) expensive buffering/selecting operation when it already knows where the entire buffer is. As an example, I just did one that's 16.5 MB, and did get a beachball doing the Select All. (This is not on a wimpy machine.)

Thanks for your consideration,

Session → Log → Start ?

Yes, quite right, I should have mentioned, that functionality exists, but requires planning ahead :-) This is more of a "retroactive" logging request.

Usually my workflow goes like so: Cmd+K (erase entire buffer and window), run something, see problem, fix something off in an editor window, Cmd+K again, try again, etc. Eventually it works... and it's then I want to save the results.

Thanks
