take a look at EUServer, specifically the parser I built within it.
The brunt of the parser is contained in the files:
basiccmd.e and cmdlist.e within the euserver zip file...
it implements a dynamic function list like you describe.
another good example I know of is within win32lib itself for
storing the on_this[blah] and on_that[blech] stuff...
like on_load[window]=routineid(window_load)
and on_mouse[window]=routineid(window_mouse)
type of stuff...

so, those are two (imo, good) locations to get some pratical,
real world, easy to understand examples of the elegance of
routineID...
