I've been using the Andrew pipescript tool for this, and it's pretty handy.
It just reads its standard input and displays it in a scrollable read-only
text editor window (which allows for things like searches).  It also mentions
when an end-of-file has been reached on the standard input.

Useful for things like 'ps auxww | pipescript'.
