I don't know of any way to capture a terminal session retrospectively, but
if you know in advance that you want to capture it you can use 'script'.
'man script' for more details.

OTOH, if you just want to capture the output of 'ipchains -M -L' why not
just redirect it to a file, i.e.
     # ipchains -M -L > ipchains.rules
Another way is to use ipchains-save, like this:-
     # ipchains-save > ipchains.rules
