Any fool can use a computer. Many do. 
Novashell is not related to Dink. WinDinkEdit Plus is probably your best bet; you could also try the original DinkEdit but people seem to prefer the Windows version. There are tutorials in the files section, you should read one of those I guess.

Check out the tutorials

And if you check out the sticky topics, there's a informative one about starting creating D-Mods. By the way, you can't use Novashell for making Dink modules.

You actually can create D-Mods with Novashell. But Novashell itself is not related to Dink in any way.

Yes, Novashell is pretty complicated. I tried to make a simple scene with it once. It turned out pretty hard, but I did get the scene done and I gotta say
that the quality was much better than with regular Dink style.

But it's better that you use WinDinkEdit Plus, since you're a new to DinkC.

I've began reading "An introduction to DMOD making"
and I think it's well explained,
you shouldn't have too much problems using winDinkEdit after checking it out (thanks to Metarasal !)

Oh, are you sure you copied the Skeleton folder to the Dink Smallwood folder?

When you download WDE Plus it has a folder named "skeleton" in it. Copy it and paste it to C:\Program files\Dink Smallwood. Then open WDE and go to file > new. Then fill all the stuff with information you want and press OK. Now, you should have a map with only 1 screen in it. And then you can start modding and doing your own map.

Hope that helps.
