I'm glad you find it useful. A little tip, you do not need to modify the nodes of each path separately. Select both objects with the selection tool, and then, using the node editing tool, you can select shared nodes of both pathsmaking a selection box around the nodes (click and drag around)

Thanks Alejandro,
I'm new to Inkscape, and this is indeed very helpful. I have yet to learn how to use all the path-modifying options. The only disadvantage is that once separated, you get 2 border paths that you will have to edit both is you want to change the border later. But this is good start.

may be a solution, but do not know if it will be useful. For maps, you can trace the area around it, and then draw a line for the "frontiers". Then select both lines, and use the option "division" from path menu. I send an attached file with an example (quite horrible to see, but hopefully explanatory)

Maurice-
You may want to look at the thread on making maps from last May:

Unless things have changed, the answer is that for now it's better to maintain maps with some other tool.

Thanks, this helps a little. But the rectangle is only an example, the drawing I'm working on is more complicated. Take for instance the map of Europe, with all coutries painted in a different color. The path-segments on each border belong to two paths, around the two bordering countries. Now if I want to edit that border, I would like to edit only one path. Is that possible? Or do I have to draw each border twice?
Thanks for the help. Maurice
