This would have been my suggestion if his shell() looked ok. It does 
point out a problem with using shell(), especially in OS X where things 
are very possibly not going to be installed in their standard *nix 
locations. A method to check for the location of an exectuable and if 
necessary, a way for the user to provide the path, should be provided.
