Allow python to use default locale instead of requiring GB #36

myLocale=locale.setlocale(category=locale.LC_ALL, locale="en_GB.UTF-8")

This fails on my (windows7/10) machines due to missing the locale "en_GB.UTF-8". This prevents this script (q_routine.py) from running, and ultimately blocks all the chart/graph functionality of sublime-q (i.e. pressing f4 does nothing).

I think the correct workaround is to just use locale="" as this should allow Python to use a default locale on the machine. This works on my US Windows/MacOS machines, but please do try on some on your end to confirm!

As an alternative, we could also wrap setlocale in a try/except block. I do not think it should be necessary for users to have en_GB locale installed. Let me know what you think.

Thanks.
