Someone will probably be along with a better answer in a bit, but from
what I can see there is no native member of the array class that will
return a collection of indicies rather than types.

Ofcourse you could always just loop through the array and return each
index - or build up your own collection if you need them alltogether

for($i=0; $i -lt $a.length; $i++) {if($a[$i] -eq 3) {$a[$i]}}

There is another option of using the [array]::IndexOf() method, this
only returns the first match, but there's an overloaded signature that
constricts the start and end indicies that govern the search, so you
could call it iteratively. I figure by the time you've done this
you've created more work than the above simple loop though.
