Trying to capture a group list to push to a miniwindow. It can range from 1 row to 10 rows and is ANSI colored. I can get a trigger to match the header and push it to a new window but not all of it and not dynamically.

It seems like this question has nothing to do with miniwindows and actually is just about variable-line-count capturing.

What you want is two triggers instead of just one. One trigger activates on the header and then enables a disabled catch-all "*" trigger for the rest of the lines. When the header trigger fires, activate the catch-all trigger to capture the rest of the lines. Then have the catch-all trigger disable itself when it sees a blank line.
