I've read that you can write your trigger procedures
in C. Maybe you can use C system call to call a shell
script. I haven't tried programming stored procedures
in C.
The following is the section of the manual regarding
triggers
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.2/postgres/triggers.html
Hope that helps,
