What sort of thing are you looking for?
pg_standby accepts a trigger file as well as various types of signal
I didn't see anything about signals in the documentation at (

We use signals in shell scripts to trigger (in some cases) a WAL copy, and in others an immediate wake-from-sleep to copy a final WAL file to trigger a failover.
