1) Plug your your Grasshopper list into a GHPython input parameter.
2) Right-click this input parameter and set it to "List Access" (you can also specify a data type here, like string in your case)
3) The name of the input parameter will be the name of the variable within the scope the GHPython script.

Edit: If you mean being able to read the data through the EditPythonScript editor, you can add it to the sticky dictionary after passing it to a GHPython component.

Wow that was a quick answer:

1. I posted the question

2. I walked to my canteen and bought a sandwich

3. Got back and you'd answered!

Thankyou! I'll give it a try...

No worries, you might be interested in the brand new Rhino Python Guides that McNeel posted the other day, looks like a terrific resource! Enjoy your sandwich :)
