Small Python script to correct wrong offset values for converted TJAs from TakoTako <=3.2.0
"""
Fix offset values due to bug in older versions of TakoTako (<=3.2.0)
See also: https://github.com/Fluto/TakoTako/issues/16
Bug description:
- TJA songs have an "OFFSET:" value.
- When converting TJAs to fumen, "OFFSET" is automatically included in
the data of the fumen files themselves.
