Looking for sage advice

[Perry Smith <pedz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I want to write “something” that effectively does

function xlargs

{

  tr ‘\n’ ‘\0’ | xargs -0 $*

}

Would you recommend doing this as an autoload function or as an alias?  The reason I ask is because back when I used bash and something called rvm, all of my aliases proved to be a horrible wrench for their bash shell scripts.  So I’ve sorta sworn off of aliases but I’m wondering if that is imprudent.

Thank you for your time,

Perry
