How to set all layers of a specific layer name visible, regardless of layer purpose

cvictoria

I'm creating a procedure that toggles the visibility of a group of layers in the Layout View window. My goal is to toggle all the layers that have the LayerName M1 regardless of their purpose.

I'm able to do this currently by listing out each LayerName & LayerPurpose Pair like so;

leSetLayerVisible(`("M1" "drawing") t)

leSetLayerVisible(`("M1" "dummy") t)

etc. etc.

But its sooooo tedious. 

Is there a way I can use the leSetLayerVisible function for all M1 layers without having to specify each individual purpose combo? I've tried replacing the purpose string with a " * " wildcard but that doesnt seem valid.

    procedure(CCFsetLayerVisible(layerName visible @optional (cv geGetEditCellView()))
      let(((tf techGetTechFile(cv)))
        foreach(purpose setof(lp tf~>lps lp~>name==layerName)~>purpose
          leSetLayerVisible(list(layerName purpose) visible)
        )
        t
      )
    )

    Then you can use CCFsetLayerVisible("M1" t)
