> ## Storing triggers in an operating system directory

> In a development environment, it is usually a good idea to store trigger procedures in a directory. In a directory, you can store compiled procedures (.r files) and source procedures (.p files). You can modify the source code of the procedures as necessary.

> Also, you can run uncompiled procedures against any database that has the appropriate schema. In contrast, if a procedure is precompiled, the r-code stores the logical name of the database you compiled the procedure against. The precompiled procedure can only run against a database with the same logical name.
