shell-mode question

Dear emacs-community,
I have a question concerning the shell mode.
When I execute a shell-skript, how can I display the output not in the
shell-buffer but in the buffer im working?
And: is it possible in shell-mode to add text not only at the end of line
but whenever I want to?
Thanks for Your help,
Stefan

Maybe this way:

	<shell interpreter> <path to your shell script> >> <path to your  
shell script>

or

	<path to your shell script> >> <path to your shell script>

which will add the script's output to the script's end. You might  
think of separating std-out and std-err. Now do M-x revert-buffer,  
and voilà: new contents (hopefully).

You can apply a change to the *shell* buffer or some other buffer in  
shell-script-mode whenever this buffer is not read-only. Then you can  
also apply a change wherever you want ...

Use C-u M-! to prompt for a shell command, execute it, and insert the 
output in the current buffer.

Yes, you can edit the current input line normally.
