Rests

Two types of rest symbols are supported. Normal rests and long rests.

Normal rests are rests of which duration is not more than one measure and is specified by small letter "r" followed by duration indictor.

Long rests are rests of which duration is multiple of one measure and is specified by number of measures to rest enclosed within hyphens.
