Probably next steps would be to experiment with what is returned from the dig commands.
For instance, save the return message to a variable.
Then, see if it contains or does not contain an important message.
Finally, based on the "if" statement you just did, you could display either
OK -- full return message here
*ERROR* - unknown ___ -- full return message here
Experiment a little with this.

NAME
mq_send - send a message to a message queue
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
The system call adds a message pointed to by the argument msg_ptr to the message queue specified by mqdes. The msg_len argument specifies
the length of the message in bytes. The value of msg_len should be less than or equal to the mq_msgsize attribute of the message queue, or
will fail.
If the specified message queue is not full, will insert the message into the queue at the position indicated by the msg_prio argument. A
message with priority, msg_prio, will be inserted behind any other messages with larger or equal priority. The value of msg_prio should be
less than
If the specified message queue is full and the flag is not set in the message queue blocking status associated with mqdes, will block in
priority order, until it can send a message on the queue, or until is interrupted by a signal. If the specified message queue is full and
the flag is set in the message queue blocking status associated with mqdes, the message will not be enqueued, and will return with an
error.
To use this function, link in the realtime library by specifying on the compiler or linker command line.
