Use ''.join and chr() as others have pointed out.  Here are just-for-fun 
versions ;)

.>>> t = (0x73, 0x70, 0x61, 0x6D)

(use string formatter):
.>>> '%c%c%c%c' % t
'spam'

(use struct model):
.>>> import struct
.>>> struct.pack('bbbb', *t)
'spam'

I'm usually annoyed by IDEs because, for instance, they don't use VIM
as an editor. Since I'm hooked to that, all IDEs I've used so far have
failed to impress me.
