Fixed Slow FOR loop

Not sure why, but the following executes very slowly in v15.00.27:

for %f in (*) (
echo %f
echo %f
echo %f
)

Unlike the following which executes in no time:

for %f in (*) (
echo %f
)
 
Because (1) you're not running the current build (15.00.30), and (2) you have "Duplicate CMD.EXE bugs enabled", and (3) you're probably using a non-default command separator (something other than &). Change any of those and it should work as expected.
