1. follow the tutorial you had
2. sorry but that requires memgraft, which isn't compatible with the current patch (downgrade starcraft, or wait for firegraft)
3. I don't understand what you mean by this, if you mean like DatEdit then good luck, it requires a ton of programming skill
if you still don't understand how DatEdit works, play around with it a little while and it should all become clear...

Yes, it is possible
as for extremely advanced editing of staredit, the tutorial doesn't cover it

1. thats hardcoded into the exe, you would have to use memgraft (no support for this patch, so it would have to downgrade), or you can wait on firegraft
2. depends on what type of requirements your'e talking about
3. you can do that pretty easily with DatEdit (in units.dat basic tab)
ADDITION: if you ever need any more help, feel free to post in the modding forums or PM me

Here's a tutorial that explains how to make the Supply Depot train Civilians. It's written for patch 1.12b, but the process is the same for newer versions (1.13e). The latest patch is 1.13f, but as TF said, there is no tool that can mod it yet, so you'll have to downgrade into 1.13e.

With making a modded map, you'd want to use SCMLoader. At the moment, SCMLoader does not have button patching capabilities, since it needs the release of FireGraft.
If you just want to make a regular mod, you'd need to downgrade your SC. In that case, you couldn't play on the Battle.net servers. All other players in the game would need to have the mod as well.
