          I found something... http://www.smustard.com/script/PathCopy . Thank you.

          "PathCopy v.2.1
          by Rick Wilson

          description Copy groups or components along a path, at set spacing or node spacing
          usage Select "Copy Along Path" from the Plugins menu, select a path, then select a group or component to copy.
          Copy to Path Nodes will make a copy of the selected group or component, placing the copies at the vertices of the selected path.
          Copy to Spacing will make a copy at set intervals along the path. You may specify a distance in the VCB.
          The zip file contains pathCopy.rb, vector.flat_angle.rb, and Icons/pathcopy.png"

          But:

          Known issues
          When using the "path nodes" option, items will NOT BE ROTATED 😢 as they are copied. There is a fix planned for this.

            glad you found it - the fix has been in planning for quite some time so i wouldn't expect too eagerly : (

            the plugin is great but it would be greater to have more options to copy along paths - some kind of superarray tool 😛

              tangents on the curved paths... definitely it will be very useful.

                  Yeah, I'm a bit slow lately. 8-month-old baby + overtime at day job = not much ruby time 😞
                  It will get done eventually... 😄
