Didn't use gnetlist on that design because my progress has stalled since then.

But when looking at the gTAG example I found out that gnetlist has many options to make the netlist for your needs out of a hierarchical design. Do I really have to run refdes_renum on the subcircuit only? Is there a tutorial about subcircuits on the net explaining all the steps in detail?
