Keeping in mind that 2.37 is a really old version now and so there might be some really old bugs that have been fixed for so long that we beta testers, gurus, and general group of in-the-know users have largely forgotten about them (in other words, it works fine for the latest beta version but might be buggy enough for you to be unuseable)...

1)make a separate package (assuming these triggers and stuff are not already in a separate package)
-open Package Editor
-click on the File|New Package menu
-select a name

2)move all the triggers/classes/etc to this new package

3)upload to the Package Library
-in the Package Editor, click on the Edit|Package Properties menu
-in the window that appears, fill in the necessary information (name, package version, any special instructions, etc)
-click on the Add to Package Library button

If you don't want every other CMud user to have access to your package, you will need to use email or some other external-to-CMud venue (ie, a website or chat client). There are plans to have a private area in the Package Library, but at this time the closest we have gotten to that is via the MyMUDs website (and I don't really know the status on that anymore.)

If I want to use email to send it to someone, how would I do it?

Edit: Also, how do they access it from the package library? Sorry I'm really new to this.

i would export to XML and sent them the file that makes and have them import it
for them to access it from the library they need a licenced copy, and for someone to have uploaded the package there

They can access the library via the Edit|Library menu on the main session menubar. Once they find your package, there's an install link there that will install the package (click it and it's done).

If you will be using email, you need to find the appropriate .pkg file and send it as an attachment. Once they've received the email, they will need to save the attachment to disk and move the file to the Cmud Packages folder. Once there, they will then have to open the Package Editor in CMud and use the File|Open... menu.
