Replicate TextPad feature (copy marked lines)

Hi All,

I use vim as much as possible, but today I saw a coworker do something interesting with TextPad.

He would use find with a string or regular expression. Then he can mark all matching lines.
He can repeat the process with several strings.

After that he would copy all the marked lines and paste to another window.

In vim we could do this using the g command by providing multiple expressions separated by \|

My question is if there would exist a way (using plug-in would be fine) to do this sequentially in vim?

Regards,
Jorge
