How Do You Properly Format Headers in cURL Requests? or What’s the Best Way to Include Headers in a c

Oh man, the struggle is real. One time my headers curl request failed because I used `Content-Type:application/json` (no space after colon). Server rejected it.

Always do `"Key: value"` with that space. And yeah, stack `-H` for multiple headers—it’s the standard.

If you’re on Windows, watch out for cmd vs. PowerShell quoting rules. They’re *different* and it’s annoying.
