endi and endif [message #84864]

OK I'm sure I am missing something obvious here

When I am typing into the workbench editor, and enter an "if" clause

"if a eq 3 then begin "

the editor automatically adds a subsequent "endi". This is fine but I don't know any IDL words spelled "endi" so I manually add the missing "f" at the end to make an "endif". But now the program no longer compiles.

To add to the confusion, if I am working from the command line and a stand-alone editor, the program will compile with "endif" but not with "endi"!! The following program will not compile.

pro test
if !Const.pi lt 3 then begin
print,'All is well'
endi
return
end

My only guess at this point is that in the workbench "endi" has a special meaning.
