Not sure if this is exactly what you want, but there's a way to make
measures per line be consistent on each line (not as flexible as having a
maximum, but at least it's a start...)

From 11.3.1 of manual:

<< \repeat unfold 7 {
        s1 \noBreak s1 \noBreak s1 \noBreak s1 \break     % 4 measures then
a break
   }
  % insert the real music here...

This makes the 28 measures block (4 measures repeated 7 times, assuming 4/4
time) be broken every 4 measures, and only there.

How do I specify the measures per line maximum that I would like?  The
piece I am working on is a bit crowded.  Or, am I thinking backwards and
do I have to change the spacing between notes to fix this?  How do I
specify that?

Thanks muchly.
