Correct... The length of the string you're comparing it to...
So, some examples:
------------
if [ ${i: -5} = "groff" ] ; then {do something} ; fi
if [ ${i: -4} = "bash" ] ; then {do something} ; fi
if [ ${i: -6} = "expect" ] ; then {do something} ; fi
if [ ${i: -3} = "tcl" ] ; then {do something} ; fi
------------
I don't know if these examples are all correct names, but it gives you the
general idea. :)
