From src/buffer.c:

  DefBufferLispVar ("mode-line-format", &bf_cur->mode_line_format,
    "Template string for displaying mode line for current buffer.\n\
Each buffer has its own value of this variable.\n\
The string is printed verbatim in the mode line\n\
except for %-constructs:\n\
  %b -- print buffer name.   %f -- print visited file name.\n\
  %* -- print *, % or hyphen.   %m -- print value of mode-name.\n\
  %s -- print process status.   %M -- print value of global-mode-string.\n\
  %p -- print percent of buffer above top of window, or top, bot or all.\n\
  %[ -- print one [ for each recursive editing level.  %] similar.\n\
  %% -- print %.   %- -- print infinitely many dashes.\n\
Decimal digits after the % specify field width to pad or truncate to.");
