I have read through Sections 5.4.6. I set Score.BarLine #'stencil to  
false and Staff.BarLine #'break-visibility = #'#(#f #f #f). Despite  
this, I still see extra space. I am not sure where this space is  
coming from, but it is not the BarLine object. Notice the rivers of  
white every four beats in these examples:

\relative c'
{
f4 g a b
f4 g a b
\override Score.BarLine #'stencil = ##f
f4 g a b
\revert Score.BarLine #'stencil
f4 g a b
f4 g a b
}

\relative c'
{
\override Staff.BarLine #'break-visibility = #'#(#f #f #f)
f4 g a b
f4 g a b
f4 g a b
f4 g a b
}

\relative c'
{
\set Score.timing = ##f
f4 g a b \bar ""
f4 g a b \bar ""
f4 g a b \bar ""
f4 g a b \bar ""
f4 g a b \bar ""
f4 g a b \bar ""
f4 g a b \bar ""
f4 g a b \bar ""
f4 g a b \bar ""
f4 g a b \bar ""
f4 g a b \bar ""
f4 g a b \bar ""
}

Could someone please point me in the right direction regarding where  
this extra space is coming from?

Thank you,
Basil
