Sequential file I/O is permitted while a transaction is active, so your trigger subroutine could write to a file that some server process (not in a transaction) was waiting on. Sequential file I/O statements can also work with named pipes, though these are more difficult in a Windows environment. As far as I am aware, you can also use the sockets library and/or the HTML library while a transaction is active; these suggest themselves as alternative ways to provide an interface to my postulated server process.
