RE: ENDIF in CLP -- MIDRANGE-L

My guess is that the programmer wanted to visualize the close of the condition. I can't say I'd ever do that, but I completely understand the desire to. You know, like how most non-CLP languages close conditions. ;)

That said, if I were taking ownership of the program, that EndIf would be deleted so fast...
