my suggestion,
.measure x=integrate(probe=...)
does only print a single number..?

also, you can put that number to a file using
.measure x=integrate(probe=...) > file
or append with
.measure x=integrate(probe=...) >> file
in case this is where you want to pick it up later on.

you can pass boundaries to integrate, such as
.measure x=integrate(probe=..., begin=1, end=2)

(note that you can only use "measure" on waves that have been stored
during the previous simulation. there is some of work-in-progress
related to this...)

i'm not sure if i understand. would you like to get an output close to

#time  probe   integral(probe)
0       0            0
1       0            0
2       1            0
3       1            1
4       1            2
5       1            3

?
