I've written code and many functions inside IPython and now I want to export them to a file in a structured way as in a legible script.py. Is there any mechanism in Ipython to provide such an opportunity?

%save magic would work best for your current use case (where you have already written code and functions in ipython).
For future interactive programming sessions where you would like to save code later you might want to check out iPython notebook (1). Along with all existing iPython functionality and options for saving as plain python script or a reusable notebook, its great for interactive sessions.

Have you tried the %save
magic:
Save a set of lines or a macro to a given filename.
