[BUG] curl code samples omit non-printable characters about schemathesis HOT 3 OPEN

Thank you for reporting!
indeed, I think that for now the best course of actions would be to warn the user. This is somewhat unfortunate that properly solving the issue would introduce shell-dependent code :( not sure if it could be worked around with some built-in curl feature

Thinking about it a bit more, maybe just do something as simple as displaying a warning along the lines of “This test involves characters which are difficult to portably represent in shell commands. Here's the Python version:” and override the code sample language? I'd assume that most people using this tool wouldn't be terribly surprised by that and it's something of an edge case so it makes sense to switch to the alternative you already have.

I like the idea and wording that you proposed! An alternative I was thinking about is showing the cURL command without headers that contain such characters and then displaying headers separately in the warning message, but probably it would not be as useful.

Got to research if it could be possible to detect the shell and display the headers properly.
