Running a helm-make process in vterm

As per title, how can I run a makefile compilation process invoked via
helm-make in vterm instead of the default term buffer (which can be a
bit glitchy with some std output)?

Isn't it a compilation buffer? Anyway, I would prefer the output is in
the compilation buffer instead of vterm (I don't know if that is even
possible - sorry can't help you there) as the latter is not a quite
regular buffer. It makes it hard to work with the output.

To solve your problem, though, is to tell the external program to make
the output a plain one. For instance, gradle has this "--
console=plain" argument. I hope the one you use has something like
this.
