I don't know where the requirement for a single character comes from,
but since I can't memorize these cryptic characters, I customized
the mode-line to display coding names in full, except a few characters
that I can remember: "U" for UTF-8, and "-" for ASCII:
;; This fix uses mnemonics only for known codings that are frequently used.
;; Otherwise, it displays the full name of the codings.
(setq-default mode-line-mule-info
`(""
(current-input-method
(:propertize ("" current-input-method-title)
local-map ,mode-line-input-method-map
mouse-face mode-line-highlight))
(:eval
(propertize
(cond
((not (memq buffer-file-coding-system
'(no-conversion

utf-8-unix)))
(replace-regexp-in-string
"-\\(?:dos\\|unix\\)$" ""
(format "%S" buffer-file-coding-system)))
(t "%z"))
'help-echo 'mode-line-mule-info-help-echo
'mouse-face 'mode-line-highlight
'local-map mode-line-coding-system-map))
(:eval (mode-line-eol-desc))))
A long coding string in the mode-line also serves as a warning that
a non-standard coding is used in the buffer.
