I'd recommend to use pdlua instead of shell. You get a nicer language and can use it for many other tasks, too.
To simply start a program use e.g.
os.execute("gvim")
or use io.popen(prog) for running more advanced commands that you need to get feeback from. (io.popen may not work on Windows, AFAIK)
