Below "C:\texlive\2019", you should find "bin\win32", within which
you should find "TeXworks.exe". Launch this (by double-clicking),
and a TeX editor will load; you can then type your first TeX program
into its main window :<br>
<br>
<tt>% !TeX Program=XeTeX</tt><tt>
</tt>
<p style="-qt-paragraph-type:empty; margin-top:0px;
margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px;
-qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"><tt><br>
</tt></p>
<tt>
</tt>
<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px;
margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"><tt>\message
{This will appear on the console}</tt></p>
<tt>
</tt>
<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px;
margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"><tt>and
this will appear in the preview window.</tt></p>
<tt>
</tt>
<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px;
margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"><tt>\end</tt><br>
</p>
<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px;
margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"><br>
Then click on the "Typeset" button (a grey right-pointing triangle
on a green circular ground), and TeXworks will ask where you want
to save the file and what name to give it. Accept the defaults,
and you should see the results in the right-hand (preview)
window. To see the message on the console, press Ctrl-\ when
focus is in the main (source) window.<br>
