To be more precise, I would like to do something like this :

    (giac-insert "spreadsheet(spreadsheet[[[...]]])")
    (session-evaluate))     ;; open the spreadsheet widget
->  (pause waiting for the output to be written in TeXmacs)  ;; command I'm 
looking for
    (insert (read-line (open-input-file "table.tab")))
    (session-evaluate)    ;; export the table to TeX
    (field-insert #t)
    (delayed
   (:pause 10)
        (giac-insert "<Evaluer_pour_modifier_le_tableau_avec_Xcas>")
        (insert-return)
        (giac-insert (string-append "spreadsheet(" (read-line 
(open-input-file "table.tab")) ")"))  ;; save the modified table in TeXmacs 
waiting for another modification
        (field-insert #t))) 

I don't if it helps.
