What exactly have you done? Remember that TeX progtrams are not very
useful as interactive programs although they can be used that way. In
xelatex you will see just the ** prompt and you will have to type the
whole document. You should enter the file name on the command line.
The shortest documents is
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
Hello world!
\end{document}
Save it as hello.tex and run:
xelatex hello
Or, if you have font Sanskrit2003 installed, save the following
document as aumtatsat.tex:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont[Script=Devanagari]{Sanskrit2003}
\begin{document}
ॐ तत्सत्।
\end{document}
Now run:
xelatex aumtatsat
