All PostgreSQL versions for some years now have support for user-defined
functions, and 7.3 provides for set-returning functions in plpgsql.

In your case you want to do somethine like:
CREATE TYPE id_name_type AS (col_id CHAR(10), col_name CHAR(30));
CREATE FUNCTION forward(CHAR(10)) RETURNS SETOF id_name_type AS
...
This should do it for you. There are more examples in Section II, Chapter 9 of
the Programmer's Guide.
Note that you might want to consider the use of varchar() rather than char()
types - char() is space padded and there is no speed impact on PG.
