This is off the top of my head and untested, but it should do the trick:
import nxt
b = nxt.find_one_brick()
m = nxt.motcont.MotCont(b)
m.cmd(nxt.PORT_A, 70, 360)
m.cmd(nxt.PORT_B, -70, 360)
See motcont.py or the help() docstrings for more info.

Yeah, that will do fine. You can also use nxt-python's nxt_push script.

I can't get the linux version of NeXTTools working (the bit to put the motcont file on the nxt), there isn't a windows version, and I don't have a mac. I tried using the nxt_push script, but it tells me something about an invalid file name. Could you explain a bit more in-depth on how I would use nxt_push to get it on there?

Yes, give it a valid filename.

eg, rename to "MotCont", without an extension, and push it?
