           Summary: cmd's for command can't handle /f option
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS/GIT
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-programs
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: dank at kegel.com


I ran into the follow cmd construct today in a real world script:

    for /f %%X in ('foo.exe') do set %%X

The /f ... ('command') option is described here
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/for.mspx?mfr=true
and it means "run the command in single quotes, then loop over
each word of the output".

(The real script was trying to set environment variables
whose name and value were from stdout of foo.exe.)
