Fix for Issue #48: Changed the black executable from a string to a list to allow 'python -m black' to be used instead of just 'black' for the executable name. This is because black as a standalong executable is not something that is typically supported on windows, but the python module invocation always works, and the zombie processes that were using up file handles for Issue 48 was due to the make-process function failing when it couldn't find a black executable. Changing blacken-executable to the list fixes this problem (assuming the black module is installed).
