Use the pygame event filtering to block certain event types. Turn this
off and on around your input_raw call.

http://pygame.org/docs/ref/event.html#pygame.event.set_blocked

pygame.event.set_blocked(pygame.KEYDOWN | pygame.KEYUP)
value = raw_input()
pygame.event.set_blocked(None)



  
That code doesn't block the events.  They still appear in the next 
call to pygame.event.get().  Here is a script you can run to verify this:


*
import pygame

pygame.init()
displaySurface = pygame.display.set_mode( (400, 300), 0 )

while True:

   for event in pygame.event.get():
   print event
   if event.type == pygame.KEYDOWN and event.key == pygame.K_s:
   pygame.event.set_blocked(pygame.KEYDOWN | pygame.KEYUP)
   value = raw_input("Type some stuff (include the 's' 
character): ")

   pygame.event.set_blocked(None)
   print "You typed", value
   pygame.display.flip()
*


pygame.display.flip() didn't have the appropriate indentation.  It 
should be corrected now (above).  Has anyone run this and confirmed my 
problem?

Kinda :)

So I guess you just have to make sure you're focusing either on the pygame 
window (to send it events) or the shell that launched the pygame app (to send 
events to raw_input). If that works, which I couldn't guarantee.
