Hi,

>> g8-. g-. g-. g-.

staccs = {
    \once \override Script #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
    \once \override Script #'text = \markup \concat { \musicglyph 
#"scripts.staccato" \hspace #0.4 \musicglyph #"scripts.staccato" \hspace #0.4 
\musicglyph #"scripts.staccato" \hspace #0.4 \musicglyph #"scripts.staccato" }
    \once \override Script #'X-offset = #-0.3
}

\score {
  \relative c' { \staccs c2:8-. }
}

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
