You don't need to specify the string for any note.
LilyPond choose the open string or the fret which is as close to the
capo as possible.
In the snippet above only the last note of each measure really needs a
string indicator, the others are redundant.

Is your question about fingering (tenuto)?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenuto
You have a couple of options:
c--
c^"tenuto"
This will show up in Staff only (not in TabStaff, unless you use
\tabFullNotation).
Maybe now I'm confusing you...

You must enter the right pitch and LilyPond will choose the correct
fret:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/notation/writing-pitches
You should read the Learning Manual first.
Then you can get specific answers in the Notation Manual; the index can
be a good place to start:
