How can I use 'manual' as a trigger option for popovers in the Twitter Bootstrap framework?

Question

In the Twitter Bootstrap framework, both the Twipsy and Popover plugins list 'manual' as an option for triggering the tooltip. How would one use the manual option (i.e. what's the practical effect of that - how does the tooltip get activated)?

Answer
This is what I ended up using (making use of 'toggle'):

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$('.popup-marker').popover({
        html: true,
        trigger: 'manual',
    }).click(function() {
        $(this).popover('toggle');
    });
});

You could activate it with:

$('#element').twipsy('show')

And then hide with:

$('#element').twipsy('hide')
