The string literal incorrectly formatted. The backslashes in the JSON string not properly escaped, leading to invalid C syntax. Signed-off-by: Haydar Alaidrus <haydar.alaidrus@gmail.com>

Thanks. I landed it with two backslashes as the escape because one backslash escapes the other and it shows as a single backslash. |

@jay Got it, thank you. |

- Check to make sure all backslashes in EXAMPLE are properly escaped. eg manpage must always use `\\n` never `\n`. This is because the manpage requires we always double blackslash to show a single backslash. Prior to this change an erroneous single backslash would pass through and compile even though it would not show correctly in the manpage. Ref: curl#12588 Closes #xxxx
