New User, Very Confused #85

I have no real experience coding, and have no idea how to actually work this. I think I know the idea behind the merging, I run the code with the sources I want to use listed. But how do I run it? Is there a program I need? Is there something in GitHub that I would use? I made this account specifically and only so that I can use your compendium files, but I have no clue how to make that work. I would very much appreciate some guidance.

Thanks, and sorry for the trouble

You actually don't need to run any programs to merge anything, unless you want to merge multiple sources into one file (which can make things a bit simpler to handle). Otherwise, you can just download the sources that you want to install found under the "FightClub5eXML/Sources" folder, and import those directly into the app. If you do want to merge multiple sources into one file, then you'll need to download a program called "xsltproc". Assuming that you're using a computer running the Windows operating system, you can follow the instructions (http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/InstallingAProcessor.html)[here] to download that program onto your computer. You can then follow the instructions found at the bottom of the README file to compile the sources you want into a single source file, and import that single source file.

Otherwise, I personally just import the files I want one-at-a-time.
