IPC Message Queue Implementation in C

A simple implementation of IPC Message Queues.
IPC_msgq_send.c adds the message on the message queue .
IPC_msgq_rcv.c removes the message from the message queue.

To use this program first compile and run IPC_msgq_send.c to add a message to the message queue. To see the Message Queue type ipcs -q on your Unix/Linux Terminal.

Now compile and run IPC_msgq_rcv.c to read the message from the Message Queue.
To see that you have read the message again use ipcs -q
