Then when I add my own "f" it becomes "endiff" and no longer compiles. This doesn't always happen but has happened several times in the past few months.

For what it's worth, this has happened to me before also. I didn't save any details of what i was doing or anything, so i can't recreate it (helpful i know!), but i do remember it happening. I'm pretty sure i had to restart IDL to get it to compile with "endif" and not "endi".
