1. Pull the .emacs stuff in the Doc Guide into my ~/.emacs file.

Another user-friendly alternative would be to use my 'psgmlx' package, which not only does all the SGML/XML editing setup for you, it also provides the capability to tag content or add/change attributes by right-clicking the mouse in various places in your document. It also provides a number of color themes specifically for editing SGML/XML documents, all of which are accessible from the 'SGML' menu when in sgml-mode or xml-mode.
To use/install it, all you need to do is to expand the tarball, run the 'test' script, put a couple snippets in your .emacs, choose a default color-theme, and you're up and running. BTW, specific installation instructions are provided in a popup emacs window when you run the 'test' script. You can download & read more about psgmlx at the home page:
http://dulug.duke.edu/~mark/psgmlx/
If you do choose to go this route, you should either start a new .emacs file (rename your old one), and add the snippets to it, or else place the psgmlx stuff *after* the stuff you've put in from the Docs Guide. Either way, don't forget to byte compile the new .emacs.
OTOH, if you're happy with your setup, don't change it.

HTH.
