I think it'd be good to clearly state here that "the program name" is
actually the name of the program's executable file.

FWIW, I like the doc string's wording better:
If @var{coding} is a symbol, it specifies the coding system to be
used for both reading and writing of data from and to the
connection. If @var{coding} is a cons cell
@address@hidden(@var{decoding} . @var{encoding})}}, then @var{decoding}
will be used for reading and @var{encoding} for writing.

Please mention 'undecided' explicitly here, since that is more
specific than the more vague "determine from the data".
Thanks.
