+ <para>
+ The <function>pam_prompt</function> function constructs a message
+ from the specified format string and arguments and passes it to the
+ conversation function as set by the service. Upon successful return,
+ <emphasis>response</emphasis> is set to point to a string
+ returned from the conversation function. This string is allocated
+ on heap and should be freed.
