In addition, from inside psql do \ef function_name. This opens the function in
an editor from which you can save it elsewhere.
If you are talking a lot of functions then you can use the -l and -L options to
pg_restore to create a TOC list that can be edited to contain only the functions
you want. These than can either be restored to a database or file.
