is there anyway to have the script pause or wait for an output before sending more commands to the script?
No simple answer here but your subject line makes one think. . .
There is a lot of current work on the "expect" toolkit for use with Tcl. It's all quite UNIXy but it does provide a means for a shell script to do the kind of waits, and even make replies, that you are thinking about.
Perhaps you can make the shell command do the waiting before it replies to AppleScript.
