If you look at org.jmol.applet.Jmol.java you will find examples of using
scriptWait and script:
case SCRIPT_WAIT:
return viewer.scriptWait(script);
case SCRIPT_NOWAIT:
default:
return viewer.script(script);
This does exactly what you are looking for. The return is the result of
output going to a String buffer.
