RS utility - folder structure for storing reports

I am trying to use the RS utility for deploying reports I create to our
customers. I need to hand them an install CD that does everything. I can
deploy reports via RS, but I am wondering how to preserve a folder structure
for organizing the reports. Also, how do I script subscriptions, and deploy
RDSs. The sample MS provides creates a new data source, not use the ones I
have already created in report design.
Thanks,

I haven't got around to subscriptions yet but it should handle most of you
requirements
