Thank you very much! I've attached an example. The plot is done half way through. I replaced the points along the first three top lines (green, blue, red). Now I am about to replace the bottom two.
The small points are actually strokes created by Matlab or EPS Tool (I don't know which one to blame). The markers in the box at the very top of the plot are originals whose clones should be used to replace the dots. They don't have to be clones -- if that should help anything.
The points should be aligned with a corresponding marker for the line...
Sure, that looks like a manageable task. And it looks like you could save time even if you wrote a new script for every illustration. ;) Do you ever hang out on irc? Try taking a gander at the python scripts based on inkex.py in the share/extensions directory. If you have any questions, I'll do my best to help.
