Formatting of numbers: Get rid of thousand separators (comma, quote, etc)

I use version 3.4.0 of SQuirreL SQL client, and whenever I execute a request that returns numbers (IDs for example), the result numbers are formatted with commas, i.e. 123,456,789 instead of plain 123456789. How can I change this formatting, so that there are no more commas?
