Thanks rwb1959.

It works. I am reading the chapter about Shell Programming of "Learning the Korn Shell" from O'Reilly. I am trying out e.gs. However, they don't have the two lines:

xyz
exit 0

Although the problem is solved, I am wondering how come they would not have that. Is there any other way to "call" the function? I would appreciate it if you would let me know.
