Dear Roger, I am not sure if I really need to convert my polygons to psp format. In fact I have a shapefile with polygons and a pair of points (x0,y0,x1,y1) and what I need is: (1) to checkout if the lines defined by (x0,y0,x1,y1) cross or not any polygon and (2) to identify which polygons were crossed by this line.
I obtained these (x0,y0,x1,y1) coordinates by computing the shortest distance between all polygons pairwise. Now I need to eliminate the "lines" which cross over polygons, and keep only those lines that "link" polygons without a overlap relationship betteen lines and polygons. I understand that it is a topological question, but I don´t know how to deal it on sp/maptools. Case you have other ideas, please, let me know.

Note that touching polygons fail the topology test in spatstat, as they should. Seeing how a psp works should't be hard, it is effectively as described in: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-geo/2008-January/003075 for making the lll matrix for distppll(), but as a data frame. You could use the marks to record which Polygons/Polygon object the segments belong to.
