Definitely consider the Python tutorial.

Also, please provide working code examples. I don't think yours will
work ;)

names = ['John','Steve','asimov','fred','jim']
f = open('/User/home/Documents/programming/python/test.txt','w')
f.write('\t'.join(names))
f.close()

A better alternative could be the csv module.
