I just found that this does not put the end dot at the right position as in
the following example where the dot should be at x=0.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pstricks-add}
\makeatletter
\define at key[psset]{}{arrowLW}{\pst at getlength{#1}\psk at arrowLW}
\psset{arrowLW=0}
\def\psas at o{\psk at arrowLW\space dup 0 eq { pop }{ SLW } ifelse
{\pst at usecolor\psfillcolor true} true \psk at dotsize \tx at EndDot }
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\psset{algebraic,arrowLW=.5pt}
\begin{psgraph}(0,0)(-2,-2)(2,2){.65\textwidth}{10cm}
\psplot[arrows=o-]{0}{1.5}{x^2}
\end{psgraph}
\end{document}
