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
