Is there any way to log every that was displayed in gnome-terminal?

for example I have a complex command

doSomethingThatPrintoutsAlot ; doSomethingThatPrintoutsAlot2 ; doSomethingThatPrintoutsAlot3

I can add > file, but than I would have to do it for each command and I have to use tail in another console to see the output. maybe gnome-terminal support logging everything?

there is .bash_history, so .... it might also support this.
