stripe cli

Steps to reproduce

Download Stripe CLI (https://github.com/stripe/stripe-cli/releases/tag/v1.4.1) after "stripe login" (not sure if needed, i was already logged in) using the command "stripe listen --forward-to https://localhost:44391/api/StripeWebHooks" works on cmd.exe, but not in terminal

Expected behavior

should work as in cmd.exe

Actual behavior

output "unknown flag: --forward-to https://localhost:44391/api/StripeWebHooks"

Screenshot with outputs: image

Contributor guide

Research direction
Compare argument parsing behavior between Windows Terminal and cmd.exe for the stripe CLI command to identify why the flag is parsed differently.
