Re: have you any idea how shell programs working
"shell" usually means a program that provides command line interface to something. Unix systems have serveral different types. Windows has command.com. Some add-on, Unix style shells are available for Windows.
"shell programs" would probably be any program with a command line interface.
Yes you can write your own, but you can also use shells to run other shells so you do not really need to write your own.
No, Gnome and KDE are window managers / graphic interfaces. They are conceptually the same thing as a shell because they provide an interface to run programs.
