As promised here is a working example.
As I find it most usable to have explanations alterning with code,
I put all necessary comments into the attached file.
I hope this is now sufficiently detailed.

your answer is perfectly
correct, except that I do not understand the necessary context so

make it actually work (yes, I am a newbie).
Would you be willing to give an example of *exactly* what would go
in a "out.ly"
file (i.e., every character of the file is given explicitly) such
that:
1) executing "lilypond out.ly" will successfully produce a
"out.pdf" file
2) the out.pdf file will have 4 measures per line
Thanks.

I was mistaken about the lilypond version, it is GNU
LilyPond 2.14.2.
Replacing
\repeat unfold 7 {
s1 \noBreak s1 \noBreak
s1 \noBreak s1 \break }
with
\repeat unfold 16 {
S1*4 \break
}
dose not help; it results in the following output:
GNU LilyPond 2.14.2
Processing `out.ly'
Parsing...
out.ly:12:0: error: syntax error, unexpected STRING
S1*4 \break
out.ly:3:2: error: errors found, ignoring music
_expression_
\new Staff
error: failed files: "out.ly"
Don't know if that's really the problem (or if you have a
typo in your email), but:
you have to write "s1*4", not "S1*4" (small 's').
