This explains the functional steps within the sequence. For all the other XML details please refer to Formats and syntax

Here, various triggers are created, simply by the same commands, with different parameters.

• Triggers.SelectMappingByName() defines the trigger mapping where the trigger is to be added
• for trigger type=hardware, the triggered hardware is set with Triggers.SetPendingTargetHardware()
• for trigger type=item, the triggered item handle is defined with Triggers.SetPendingTargetHandle() and the trigger action is defined with Triggers.SetPendingTargetAction()
• the actual trigger is then created with Triggers.AddMidiTrigger with all the little details (e.g. MIDi channel etc.) as parameter

1. make this macro available

This is best used to prepare some triggers which you always use, in some setup macros.
