Fixed DO file in with /a or /d

[vefatica]

These both work in versions before V18.

v:\> do f in /a:-d * ( echo %f )
Usage : DO [n | FOREVER]

v:\> do f in /d"v:\" * ( echo %f )
Usage : DO [n | FOREVER]

Huh. It's not just you, I've got a script that stopped working, but I put it on Monday's list to research. Same basic syntax, removing "/a:-d" and adding a later check to skip over directories seems to have worked around it, I think.

"do folder in /A:D *" results in "Usage : DO [n | FOREVER]"

A lot of my scripts are hitting this as well. Like others have said, removing the /A:D fixes the error. I can change my scripts to do a attribute check inside the loop for now, like @thedave mentions.

Fixed in build 17.
