Explicitly specifying the encoding to "utf-8". #3

This fixes a crash of the script. Without explicitly stating the encoding, it raises a UnicodeEncodeError:

It's been a while since I used this workflow but I recommend to switch to https://pypi.org/project/fake-bpy-module-2.93/ for bpy definitions.

Just install in virtualenv with pip and use that for development.

Thanks for the tip! Didn't know that existed, this GitHub repo is the first thing that popped up when I wanted to find PyCharm integration. Mind adding that switch recommendation at the beginning of the main README.md for future stumblers ❤️ ?

yep, this is a very old workflow now. Will add the notice
