This sources the indicated file into the local environment (i.e. the
environment within src) and then only copies out the objects that are
functions into the workspace so that you are only left with them.
src <- function(file) {
source(file, local = TRUE)
for(nm in ls(all = TRUE)) if (is.function(get(nm))) assign(nm,
get(nm), .GlobalEnv)
}
# usage:
src("myfile.R")
