Returning types - PL-PgSql functions

Greetings,

  I would like to know if it's possible to return a record from a pl-pgsql
function.

  The procedure I did is bellow and of course doesn't work. Is there some
possibility or work-around?

CREATE FUNCTION teste_tmp(INT4)
  RETURNS RECORD AS '
  DECLARE
    rec_tmp record;
  BEGIN
    SELECT
      INTO rec_tmp
      1 as col1, ''teste'' as col2, now() as col3 ;

    RETURN rec_tmp;
  END;
'
LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

Best regards,
