I don't know those features by name. Xcircuit will export
its netlist in spice, flattened spice, sim, and pcb formats.
You have to place your components in pcb by hand, and then
get to see the pcb rats lines. I don't know of any way to
auto place complonents, but if you had a reason to do so it
shouldn't be too hard to cobble up.
I tend to make circuits with repeating patterns, so I end up
doing some munging in perl to replicate. In pcb, I can even
cut and paste a whole block, and then use a perl script to
clean up the names. That way my four identical preamplifier
chains come out properly with resistors R1xx, R2xx, R3xx,
and R4xx.
