R help - Jun 2009 - namespace? environment? how to manage functions?

Hi, useRs-

I have been building a set of functions over time and now my R_GlobalEnv
becomes
too crowded. 

I would like to put all my functions under the same namespace/environment.
Ideally, 
I would like to call them using "env::func" as in C++. 

The following code almost do the jobs I want - except that I need to add
"env$" 
before defining each function. I can't do that because my functions are
saved in 
different files. 

Anybody has any suggestion? Thx~


## test code ##
abc <- new.env()
abc$tmpf <- function() print('hello, world!')
attach(abc)

abc$tmpf()
tmpf()

Here is the way that I do it instead of creating a package of my functions.
I 'source' the file into an environment and then attach the environment
to
keep the global from being clustered:

# read my functions into a environment
.my.env <- new.env()
sys.source('c:/perf/bin/perfmon.r', envir=.my.env)
attach(.my.env)
