Re: expressive marks alignment, accent position

Thanks to Neil Thornock, I've worked it out :

{
\override Script #'direction = #UP
d'1-> d'2-> a'-> a'1->
}

While I certainly should have tried the #'direction property when I read 
this :
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/Script#Script

the #'minimum-space property is adressed in 3.2.87 side-position-interface :
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/side_002dposition_002dinterface#side_002dposition_002dinterface
which I surely didn't check at my first attempt.
