function.
In can be a "Command" and also a "Strategy".

This is a link to the most down to earth example I could find. I am not
real pleased with it, but it looks OK if you have the necessary background.

The link must be concatenated.

Scroll down to Shiva, a familiar name.

If you continue to search you will find Coplien mentioned a lot; I have the

Your best bet would seem to be Usenet rather than the generalized Web.
