I use

    music   | % 1

Would sed still work?

Yet another reason to deprecate \relative, which I now avoid like the plague. 
(Unfortunately, I was suckered into using it when I started using Lilypond over 
a decade ago, so all my legacy code is in \relative mode. Using Frescobaldi, 
I’m slowly converting all my old code to absolute mode.)

Cheers,
Kieren.
