Executing shell commands (OS X)

[hershbp at verizon.net]

While we are at it , I'd like to execute a shell command
" shell(/usr/local/bin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -i)"
how would it work.
or at the same time
"su - postgres" and then it should put a password, and the to continue 
the above command ?
Thanks.
