Kyle >> abc = ["abcdef"]

Kyle >> abc = "abcdef"
Kyle >> 

Assuming you have stored your string in a list, you can just index into 
the list as follows:

	abc = ["abcdef"]
	abc = abc[0]

But you may also want to use the "str" function, but in this case it is
unnecessary.

You can use the read() method instead of readlines() to read everything
into a variable, and then apply the split() method on the result.

e.g

	abc = open("/path/to/foo").read().split()

then you can just index into the list referenced by abc, e.g abc[0] for
the first line, abc[1] for the second line etc etc.
