Tricky one; so what you are asking for is if the interior of the line
has any a D>0 interaction with another geometry. Since "line
intersects" was the first thing that popped into your head; and nothing
substantially better has come forward....
Still let us put that in a code example and see what it reads like...
return line1.lineIntersects( line2 );
You may want to swap that around so someone reaching for an intersects
relationship is presented with a choice by code completion....
return line1.intersectsLine( line2 );
I actually like this more; we have noun / relationship / adjective ...
although with that in mind Martin's suggestion is more correct.
return line1.intersectsLinearly( line2 );
So I am going to recommend the above.

I'm trying to think of a name to describe and intersection between two
lines, where the intersection between the two is a line (so it ignores
any point intesections). This would be detected using the following.
IntersectionMatrix relate = line1.relate(line2);
if (relate.get(0, 0) == Dimension.L) {
return true
} else {
return false;
}
Can anyone think of a catchy name to describe an operator implementing
this? Something like intersectsLine.
Cheers,
Paul
