Hello,

I would like to plot/draw a line between two points p1= (x1,y1} and
p2={x2,y2}, and I would like the line color (preferred) or thickness or dash
density  to be reflective of a known function f(d) that measures the
distance d from p1 to the point on the line.

Say p1={x1,y1}={0.,0.}, p2={10.,10}, and f[d_]:=Cos[d].

Is this possible?

Thanks!
Eric
