Subject: Mixin of class methods?

Hello all,

I'm a little bit new to the wonderful world of ruby and have a small
problem. I would like to mixin a module method:

  module M
    def M.foobar id
      puts "Hello Ruby: #{id}"
    end
  end

  class C
    include M
    foobar :example
  end

But that doesn't work. I'm trying to write some helper class methods
like attr_accessor and friends.

I don't like to write

  class C
    include M
    M.foobar :example
  end

because 'M' has to many chars to type...
My helper class methods should look like attr_accessor and friends.

What is the right way to solve this problem?
