+function [posns] = strmatch_multi(keys, strs)
+% STRMATCH_MULTI Find where each key occurs in list of strings.
+% [pos] = strmatch_multi(key, strs) where key is a string and strs is a cell array of strings
+% works like the built-in command sequence pos = strmatch(key, strs, 'exact'),
+% except that pos is the first occurrence of key in strs; if there is no occurence, pos is 0.
+%
+% [posns] = strmatch_multi(keys, strs), where keys is a cell array of strings, 
+% matches each element of keys. It loops over whichever is shorter, keys or strs.
