Tremolo dots, and old-documentation help

Two questions:

1. I'm looking for the tremolo notation, common in string parts, where the 
tremolo's rhythmic value is given by the slashes (easy to do with \repeat 
tremolo) AND there are as many staccato dots attached to the note as there are 
notes that would be played by the tremolo, e.g.

{ \repeat tremolo 4 c'16 }

... except with four staccato dots on what will be displayed as a quarter note.

Can't remember the formal name for it, so I'm not sure what to search for. As 
of the 2.12 documentation, the tremolo section doesn't say anything about it.

Which gets to the next question...

2. After downloading and installing lilypond-2.14.1-1.linux-64.sh, I can only 
find locally-installed documentation under /usr/share/doc/lilypond -- but these 
are version 2.12.3. Where should I find the 2.14.1 documentation on my hard 
drive?

James
