Actually he said "gschem2xpcb" which is YAFAT (yet another forward 
annotation tool).

But yes, use gsch2pcb instead of gschem2pcb or gschem2xpcb.  The former 
is much more widely used and supported.  I think the main complaint 
which caused gschem2xpcb to exist is that gsch2pcb places all footprints 
on top of each other but PCB has an action to disperse elements.
