There=92s an excellent write-up at =
http://wiki.geda-project.org/geda:csygas, including some specifics on =
gschem->LTSpice flow. Stuart=92s spice-sdb gnetlist back end is very =
capable: I used in the design flow for ASICs on the Hitomi space =
mission. Its weakness is simulating schematics intended for printed =
circuit layouts: its heuristics for figuring out how to map printed =
circuit packages onto SPICE models and subcircuits are pretty good, but =
not perfect.

For a more flexible but not so well documented netlist back end, see =
https://github.com/noqsi/gnet-spice-noqsi. With this, you can use the =
same schematic file as input for both simulation and layout. It=92s =
especially useful with hierarchy.
