Have you gotten along at hierarchic schematics?  There are some
tools I use here:   http://www.gedasymbols.org/user/john_griessen/

I can send you an example project to look at and maybe you will use the
project dir method as a model.  My project dirs include necessary config files so that
gschem uses local libraries in them.
