Is there a way to dump only functions to a directory with each function as its own file in SQL format?

AFAIK, there's no direct way to dump each function to a separate file. However, you can use system-defined function or system table to retrieve function structure and then write them to separate file each by using bash or perl scripting.

select prosrc from pg_proc where proname='foo';
or
select pg_get_functiondef('foo(integer)'::regprocedure::oid); 
or 
Use other sources like pg_extractor tools. 

+1 here.  pg_extractor is my personal favorite for this type of thing. It can give you all of your objects as separate files if you'd like.
