Hi!

I wonder if I could use a pattern for creating fucntions, that nearly 
look the same.
Background is I have to write a function for ssh, telnet, su, bash, zsh, 
tcsh and so on that all look like (for example for the ssh command):
ssh()
     {
       set_title "ssh $@"
       {
         command ssh "$@"
       } always {
         cd .
       }
     };# ssh()
How can I avoid writing all that code again and again?

Thanks in advance
