do you mean a test to see if two line segments intersect?

This looks reasonable:

http://wiki.processing.org/w/Line-Line_intersection

It probably makes sense to translate to Cython (or use the C and call with
cython).

I"ve also got similar code in a little package of mine:

https://github.com/ChrisBarker-NOAA/py_geometry

Already Cython, and includes code to check a whole bunch at once, stored in
numpy arrays:

https://github.com/ChrisBarker-NOAA/py_geometry/blob/master/py_geometry/line_crossings.pyx

I hope it's useful to you.
