Try something like this:
for a in `echo "SELECT p.proname
FROM pg_catalog.pg_proc p
LEFT JOIN pg_catalog.pg_namespace n ON n.oid = p.pronamespace
WHERE pg_catalog.pg_function_is_visible(p.oid)
AND n.nspname <> 'pg_catalog'
AND n.nspname <> 'information_schema'"|psql -A -t test`;
do echo "SELECT pg_get_functiondef('$a'::regproc);"|psql -A -t test >$a.function.sql ;done
Worked for me, will give you one file per function , called functionname.function.sql
i just wrote it so i haven't test it much

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.
