How can I copy the result in the console?

I would like to copy the body of the request so that I can paste it in any text editor to indent and organize the data to be read easily. The problem is that I could not highlight the text in the console and scroll in the same time. Any idea on how to copy the JSON code to the clipboard?

Okay as I continued with the course I found the solution. I first typed the url: http://teamtreehouse.com/username.json in the address bar making sure the JSON extension is included. That will be a JSON file where the code is condensed. Then I copied that code and went to http://jsonprettyprint.com/ and pasted the code and it was automatically organized. Great!
