James,
You can call a function as part of an expression,
${function-prefix::function-name(...)}

I'm not sure this really fits the role of function... functions
certainly perform operations, but their purpose is to return a result.
If a particular operation doesn't have a natural concept of a "returning
a result", then perhaps it should be defined as a task:
<script language="C#">
<code><![CDATA[
[TaskName("create-file")]
public class CreateFile : Task {
[TaskAttribute("filename")]
public FileInfo Filename {
get { return _filename; }
set { _filename = value; }
} private FileInfo _filename;
public override void ExecuteTask() {
File.Create(Filename);
}
}
]]></code>
</script>
You can then call your shiny new task anywhere you'd normally use a
task:
<create-file filename="foo.txt" />
