I've used "text.text" before as an output port in scripted operators to
drive the text. So it stood to reason you could do it using ICE too.
It's just a normal parameter, albeit well hidden!

How did you discover that? I had no idea ICE could be used to ‘write’
text. It makes me wonder what other abilities are concealed within ICE.

To set the text for geometry, just create an ICE tree on the text
object and make a Set Data with it pointing at "self.text.text".
For conversions for integers and scalars to string, you can either use
Dan Yargici's "DanyTools" on http://www.rray.de/xsi, or create
expressions in parameters and pull those into ICE.

I was delighted to see that I can use strings with ICE, even arrays.
I started working with animation nodes in Blender but quickly hit a
snag as my large node trees drove the software to a grind. I could
not scale my data sets. I know ICE is better optimized.
One thing I liked about Animation Nodes in Blender is the fact I can
use any value, integers to strings, on a text object. Great for
motion graphics.
How do I do this in ICE? I hope it's obvious...
