If you mean that grammatic device, look either here [1] or, maybe more up-to-date here [2] for an explanation I wrote some months ago. It's not perfect, but it explains at least what trigger systems are *basically* about. Please do not register at the Conlang Ressource ([1]) because we ZBBers moved our few explanations to WikiBooks ([2]). [1] was founded by us ZBBers as a permanent place to link n00bs to for explanations for questions that are asked every once and again. You may also look here [3], someone has asked about triggers and stuff recently, I dug some nice explanations out of the CONLANG-L archives.
