FYI, there is the gschlas utilitity which can embed or unembed
symbols. It is run from command line.

There is also a tool called garchive which can archive projects.
However, when I tried to use it, it aborted with the following
message:

Creating /home/vovka/gaf/glass/garchiverc in archive.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/garchive", line 901, in <module>
    Archive(Args)
  File "/usr/local/bin/garchive", line 757, in Archive
    UpdateSchemFiles(Args,SchemFileList)
  File "/usr/local/bin/garchive", line 597, in UpdateSchemFiles
    GschemFile.close()
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'GschemFile' referenced before assignment

Sad to say, many good utilities are neglected, for they had no
documentation. BTW, I tried to describe all utilities available in
the geda-gaf repository at http://wiki.geda-project.org/geda:gaf.
