Then I'm confused. I just had a look at
http://abcplus.sourceforge.net/abc2-draft.html

and a search for "line break" finds
"I cannot decide whether `!' should be included in ABC. Before it is,
it should be accepted by more applications - and users."


The only reference to "*" is as a blank syllable, in lyrics. Also, it
doesn't cause a staff break in any software I have the use of.
