I usually go for [system] for simple shell related things and it

In theory, there is not any difference between OSX and GNU/Linux for
[shell] and [system] and some more. They both have system(),
popen(), fork(), exec(), and /bin/bash (except very old OSX).
It's usually when trying with the other OSes that things can go
wrong. Windows needs different code for doing this, and has a
different shell. Apple iOS would be like OSX but it disables those
functions completely. Android can have /bin/bash but it's not there
by default, and its libc is different.
In practice, [shell], [system], and [popen] the objects work quite a
bit differently.
