How exactly does one go about creating an RL?
You won't be able to follow it very well if you don't know C, but you can try skimming through the source code to Martin's Dungeon Bash (the .cc and .hh files). The whole thing only comes to around 180 pages if printed out and is a complete roguelike built on top of very minimal support libraries. Even if you can't follow all of the code logic yet, you can get a full look at what a complete roguelike looks like written down.

C Roguelike Resources?
If you want to study a simpler C project, Dungeon Bash is a small complete game (using curses, so no fancy UI framework ideas there) that you can pretty much read all the way through and get some idea how a C program is put together.

Any open-source AND commercial roguelikes?
The original Rogue was commercial (Epyx sold it- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_(video_game)) ) and the code has been released (https://github.com/Davidslv/rogue).

Good open source games written in C?
Rogue, nethack, and Abuse come to mind, and then pretty much all the old id software stuff, along with the raven engine. These SDL tutorials might be of interest to you too, they are basically in the format of game sources with detailed explanations.

Starting an OG Rogue overhaul project with C & SDL, to make it playable natively, with tilesets, and eventually maybe support modding/scripting.. Join us!
Basically the idea is to take this source code: https://github.com/Davidslv/rogue,
