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.

I don't mean to be a pest, but my best guess is that your answer is perfectly
correct, except that I do not understand the necessary context so as to
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').
