The current output does not give correct beats that are similar to the original song, nor incorporates rests.

Rests in Ch can be defined as (0, 8), with 0 being the rest and 8 being how long you want to hold it (in this case, for an eighth of a note).

Look at lambda function currently holding beats.
For now, we want to make 4/4 time generally. We can create edge cases later (3/4 time, etc.)
To make 4/4 time, imagine something like this:

A _ _ _ B means that A is a quarter note (1/4, in Ch, 4).
A _ B _ means that A is an eighth note (1/8, in Ch, 8), since B follows on the 3/4 beat/dash.
AB means that A is a sixteenth note (1/16, in Ch, 16).

If we have extra dashes, such as:

A _ _ _ _ _ _

Take the greatest common amount of beats of the time (in this case 4/4, so a factor of 4, the numerator) and make the remaining dashes a rest.

So in the case above, A is a quarter note (in Ch, 4) and there is 3/4 rest (in Ch, 4/3).

We need to accept command line arguments to make automatic testing n stuff easier.

We want to be able to synthesize output with Tone.js.

From the output of deMeasureTrack() I verified that the final characters of the last lines are chopped off... something like:

0--
0--

...would become

0-
0-
``

This appears to be a problem with deMeasureTrack, because the measures are properly represented before being combined.
