Thank you for trying LDL.  I will try to answer your questions below.

1. The XML files need to be edited with a program like Notepad -- i.e. a
text editor.  I should have put this in the tutorial and will do after
writing this email.

2. To run an XML file through the LDL system, you need to go into a
command prompt window and move to the LDL directory, with

cd "C:\Program Files\AudioQuake\ldl\"

then run the XML file through the LDL scripts and compile it with the
standard Quake map compilation tools using a command such as

ldl tut05

Note that you must not put the trailing ".xml" on the file name.

3. To test the map you've just compiled, run the command

test tut05

and again do not specify the trailing ".xml" (or ".bsp" as the file is
now a compiled Quake map file).

4. There should be a file called ldl.html in your LDL directory; that's
the tutorial.  There will also be a file called ldl.pod, which is the
source file from which the tutorial is generated (it's a plain text
file, in the "Plain Old Documentation" format that is used in the Perl
community).

I hope this has helped answer your questions.  Please let me know if you
have any other queries.

best regards,
