Barfly and abc2ps do accept the P:field in the body as a simple text
string above the bar if there is no P:field in the header (BarFly opens
a dialog-window if you use a P:field in the header which does not follow
the standard, you have to quit this before playback is continued) and I
think most other programs will too (please users and authors of other
programs, give us a report).

I use a freeware Mac editor called BBEdit Lite, which I use a lot for
editing my abc files anyway, for doing this job.

At the long run, the best would be if abc programs themselves would
have this editing facilities to specify line terminators and/or can
recognize, accept, replace all kinds and combinations of linebreakes.
