Re: Inkscape terminal change color
If you don't want to use a filter or (write, if not existing) an extension to change the color, try by using a tool like sed / awk / any search-and-replace tool for the command line - you could also write a small script in your favourite programming language. SVG is basically a text-based format, and any scriptable text editing tool will allow you to automate color replacements.
