I would like to add a custom mathematical function to expr.

In older versions of max the expr documentation stated: "Additional functions can be added by means of external code resources placed in Max's startup folder." This statement has been removed in expr's max v 8 help. Is it still possible to add functions to expr in this way? And if so, how is it done?

Would really appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction.

i´ve always wanted to know how that works. allegedly you need to use c++ to invent custom commands, but how would you link the expr object to such a resource?

nowadays the vanilla expr already has a few more commands than it had in the beginning, and of course one could a well make abstractions for many things.

otoh sometimes things like : or >> would be quite useful.

or what about gauss() or lin2db() or myalgo()...
