     NAME
          XmListGetMatchPos - A List function that returns all
          instances of an item in the list

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Xm/List.h>
          Boolean XmListGetMatchPos(
          Widget widget,
          XmString item,
          int **position_list,
          int *position_count);

     VERSION
          This page documents Motif 2.1.

     DESCRIPTION
          XmListGetMatchPos is a Boolean function that returns an
          array of positions where a specified item is found in a
          List.

          widget    Specifies the ID of the List widget.

          item      Specifies the item to search for.

          position_list
                    Returns an array of positions at which the item
                    occurs in the List.  The position of the first
                    item in the list is 1; the position of the second
                    item is 2; and so on.  When the return value is
                    True, XmListGetMatchPos allocates memory for this
                    array.  The caller is responsible for freeing this
                    memory.  The caller can recover the allocated
                    memory by calling XtFree.

          position_count
                    Returns the number of elements in the
                    position_list.

          resources, see XmList(3).

     RETURN
          Returns True if the specified item is present in the list,
          and False if it is not.
