I think you are probably looking for something like what you see in this:

*set_visible *
pygame.mouse.set_visible(bool) -> bool

      Shows or hides the mouse cursor. This will return the previous
      visible state of the mouse cursor.
       
      Note that when the cursor is hidden and the application has
      grabbed the input. pygame will force the mouse to stay in the
      center of the screen. Since the mouse is hidden it won't matter
      that it's not moving, but it will keep the mouse from the edges of
      the screen so the relative mouse position will always be true. 

which seems tailor-made for what I gather you're trying to do (i.e. 
create a Quake/Doom style navigation mechanism, where you draw something 
in the center of the screen and pretend that's the mouse cursor, and 
moving the mouse moves the head of the avatar to change what you're 
looking at).

Don't know of a similar mechanism under wxPython or GLUT, but I'd guess 
*someone* has written them at some point.

HTH,
Mike
