How to write stored procedures to separate files with mysqldump?

Question

The mysqldump option --tab=path writes the creation script of each table in a separate file. But I can't find the stored procedures, except in the screen dump.

I need to have the stored procedures also in separate files.

The current solution I am working on is to split the screen dump programatically. Is there a easier way?

The code I am using so far is:

#save all routines to a single file
mysqldump -p$PASSWORD --routines --skip-dump-date --no-create-info --no-data --skip-opt $DATABASE > $BACKUP_PATH/$DATABASE.sql
#save each table to its file
mysqldump -p$PASSWORD --tab=$BACKUP_PATH --skip-dump-date --no-data --skip-opt $DATABASE

Even if I add --routines to the second command, they will not get their own files.

I think the answer is: it is not possible without post-processing
