When using the command line interface, psql, you can issue:

\df <function>
where it will give you a list of all functions that begin with the supplied
argument.  As an example, here, all developers name their functions with a
prefix of sp_ (this must be from using MS SQL..)

so:   \df sp_          will give you a list of all functions.

If you want to see the source of the function, you can use

\df+ sp_function_name

and you get to see the source of all functions that begin with that pattern
(again).
