&brkbar; and Đ
seem to be unique to HTF.
There is a list on
Entities
representing particular graphic characters with special meanings in HTML
and a list on the
ISO Latin 1 Entities in HTML
made available by the folks at CERN
(derived from ISO 8879).
[These seem to the ones currently known by Mosaic 2.4 for X.]
Or look at the end of
Appendix I
of CERN's
HTML+ Discussion Document
for another list of the mnemonic character entities for 8 bit ANSI Latin-1.
The
Appendix II
contains a
table
of the proposed character entities for HTML+ and their corresponding
character codes for Unicode and the Adobe Latin-1 & Symbol character sets.
Maybe also of interest to you is the
ISO 8859-1 FAQ
by Michael Gschwind (mike@vlsivie.tuwien.ac.at).
And I found a
table over the compose combinations
for X11R5 on SunOS systems (also available
with entities
where possible).
It's taken from the MIT X sources in
server/ddx/sun/Compose.list.
Finally you could have a look at RFC 1345: Character Mnemonics & Character Sets by K. Simonsen (06/11/92, 103 pages, approx. 240 kbyte).
