keyfreq dumps huge output to minibuffer #22

I'm trying to use "(keyfreq-show)" in Lisp code to capture the output and display it in a pop-up buffer. But the function prints it output to the minibuffer, no matter what I do. I've tried to "(setq string (keyfreq-show))", tried to wrap it with "(with-output-to-temp-buffer", both without success at protecting my minibuffer.

The problem is that there is so much output that my minibuffer expands to take over essentially my whole screen, and I have to figure out what keys to type to make the minibuffer resize.

How about changing the default behaviour to be more user friendly, or give me some options to control this sort of thing..? Thanks
