Exec starts a shell command and connects to the process' stdin and stdout. This accessor implements an interface to the shell of the host. It takes a command and starts it as a process. It connects the process' stdin and stdout to the accessor ports with the same name. FIXME: Provide a selection of shells (e.g., bash, awk, etc)
