One thing that I meant to mention is that the best form of
organisation is splitting them into separate files. Trying
to maintain one enormous file of "useful functions" is
almost always the wrong thing to do.

You could create a package to contain the separate files/modules
though.

So the first decision is how to group the functions such that
they make useful (and reusable) modules. That usually is down
to dependency management. Things that must be used together
go together. (If everything depends on everything else then
you have a major design disaster to unpick and that should
be even higher priority that reorganising the functions!).
