Writing a script that shows up in the export dialog box?

Is it possible to write a MaxScript that shows up in the list of export file types?

I would like to make a custom interface for .fbx files. I have an interface, but it's just a standard utility. I would like to hide all of the max script stuff from the Artists.

My purely logical reasoning is that you need to write SDK import pluing to can see it in the list of export file types. If you just want to hide the source code of your MaxScript then just encrypt the .ms file.
encryptScript "my_script.ms"

Not with maxscript. You could make a tool script that people have to use and let that script handle the exporting, but it will not show up as export type, you'll need the SDK for that.

Ah that sucks. Oh well.

(No I wasn't looking to encrypt the code. Just execute it in the export dialog)
