Geometry Nodes & Everything Nodes: Text File input Node for loading files from the text editor as strings

I feel like the text editor doesn't get enough love, if there was a node which would allow you to load a text file as input, you could use text files as data for generating 3d scenes.

for them to be functional, there would probably need to be more work done in string management in nodes, like a split by character into array feature, but my hope is that this would allow another form of data input other than image

This idea was marked as a duplicate of Geometry Nodes: Text Input referencing Text Data Block.

This functionality is available in animation nodes and is severely lacking in geometry nodes. I look forward to the development of this topic)

really cool! might be useful for a few things even with limited string tools in geom nodes

I'd love to be able to reference text datablock in Text object and VSE text strip as well... pssibly at other places too...
