Hi Francisco,

The simplest is probably to use GatherBy:

Clear[gatherByPositions];
gatherByPositions[x_List, plist_List] :=
  GatherBy[x, #[[plist]] &];

For example:

In[1]:= gatherByPositions[ejemplo1,{4,5}]

Out[1]=
{{{1,0,2,2,0}},{{0,1,1,1,2},{2,1,1,1,2}},{{2,0,0,1,1},{2,2,0,1,1}},{{1,1,0,2,2}},{{1,0,2,0,1},{0,1,1,0,1}}}

In[2]:= gatherByPositions[ejemplo1,{1,2}]

Out[2]=
{{{1,0,2,2,0},{1,0,2,0,1}},{{0,1,1,1,2},{0,1,1,0,1}},{{2,0,0,1,1}},{{1,1,0,2,2}},{{2,2,0,1,1}},{{2,1,1,1,2}}}


Regards,
Leonid
