** wn_iemsg(msg)
**
** (char *) msg - pointer to message to be displayed.
**
** RETURNS:
**
** NULL if error, else TRUE
**
** NOTES:
**
** This routine should be modified or replaced with code to suit
** your the applications specific needs. It hooks to wn_g????
** such that whenever the field validation fails wn_g???? calls wn_iemsg
** to display an error message for the field in question. The hooks
** in wn_g????? are of the form:
**
** if(validation failed) wn_iemsg(msg);
**
** This routine displays a single line of text on the last line and
** waits for a key to be struck before returning to accept new data
** for the field in question.
**
** The error message can be a maximum of 80 characters, and must
** not contain any formatting directives (\n\t...).
**
** Some wn_g???? (i.e. wn_gtext) have no provision to vaildate
** data and therefore never attempt to call this routine.
