traffic monitoring, ProCurve 2610

I need to determine the amount of traffic (total bytes Tx) on various ports of our ProCurve 2610 switches (as you can imagine, to determine if a particular app is overloading the WAN).  I've zeroed ports, and know that I can do this:

sw1# show int ethernet 1

 Status and Counters - Port Counters for port 1

  Name  :
  Link Status     : Up
  Totals (Since boot or last clear) :
   Bytes Rx        : 15,663,044         Bytes Tx        : 37,055,211
   Unicast Rx      : 120,491            Unicast Tx      : 123,345
   Bcast/Mcast Rx  : 19,923             Bcast/Mcast Tx  : 169,099
  Errors (Since boot or last clear) :
   FCS Rx          : 0                  Drops Rx        : 0
   Alignment Rx    : 0                  Collisions Tx   : 0
   Runts Rx        : 0                  Late Colln Tx   : 0
   Giants Rx       : 0                  Excessive Colln : 0
   Total Rx Errors : 0                  Deferred Tx     : 0
  Rates (5 minute weighted average) :
   Total Rx  (bps) : 102120             Total Tx  (bps) : 366560
   Unicast Rx (Pkts/sec) : 0            Unicast Tx (Pkts/sec) : 0
   B/Mcast Rx (Pkts/sec) : 0            B/Mcast Tx (Pkts/sec) : 0
   Utilization Rx  :     0 %            Utilization Tx  : 00.03 %

 

But then, I'd have to do a lot of copy/paste, or some kind of script to pull out the one piece of info I need to put on a spreadsheet for management.    I must be missing something- isn't there some way to get a nice, clean "Tx since last clear" for all ports?
