Actually, this is not yet possible. :( Pascal does not like
the repertoir editor and never uses it. Therefore he didn't
care about it. He uses uses PGN files containing the
repertoir instead and the opening trainer is built on that
infrastructure.
I've a similar problem like you, but till now had not the
time to either create a converstion tool between sor and pgn
or integrate the repertoir editor more nicely. (The method
I'd actually prefer).
Therefore, at the moment the only way I know is, to do the
conversion "by hand".
However, maybe you can come up with a utility for the
conversion yourself. As far as I see it is not really
difficult for someone who likes to think in recursive
algorithms. (Personally, I hate recursive algorithms like
hell, and it always takes me hours to get the recursion
right.) It should not be too difficult as it's mainly
replacing one syntax by another, once you have the tree in a
usable structure, and thats where the recursion comes in.

I think you missunderstood the "against". Say, if you train
your white repertoir then scid will move the black pieces
according to the lines in your repertoir.

I do not quite understand, but if I get it right: start scid
from the directory for default load/save. Ie. first cd to
that dir, then fire up scid.
