Any fool can use a computer. Many do. 
Well, you need to know how to use the map editor (either WinDinkEdit (downloadable in the Development section) or DinkEdit, included with the game). Then you also need to learn DinkC, a scripting language used to handle all the things in the game. See the Development section and look for tutorials about DinkC and other things. And you should really get the DinkC Reference

As for the programs, the map editor is (Win)DinkEdit. To create scriptfiles, you can use programs like Easy DinkC but NotePad/WordPad can be used as well to create the scriptfiles.

You also may want to get one of the "skeleton" d-mods to work from as a base. (in the development section) That'll get you started the simpest possible working d-mod (eg one empty room), and is easier than building from scratch.
