Does a list of the non-letter ASCII symbol macros exist?

enter image description here

\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\parindent0pt
\begin{document}
\ttfamily

\ifx\^^@\undefined\else
0: \string\^^@=\meaning\^^@\par
\fi
\count0=1
\loop
\ifnum\catcode\count0=11
\else
{\lccode`a=\count0
\lowercase{
\ifcsname a\endcsname
\the\count0:
\expandafter\string\csname a\endcsname=%
\expandafter\meaning\csname a\endcsname\par
\fi}%
}%
\fi
\ifnum\count0<255
\advance\count0 1
\repeat

\end{document}

Translation of David's list:

  • 9/\^^I (horizontal tabulator): explicit space as \␣
  • 13/\^^M (carriage return): explicit space as \␣
  • 32/\␣ (backslash, space): set an explicit space
  • 33/\!: a negative thin space in math mode
  • 34/\": diaeresis accent in text mode
  • 35/\#: hash sign in text mode
  • 36/\$: dollar in text or math mode
  • 37/\%: percent sign in text mode
  • 38/\&: ampersand in text mode
  • 39/\': acute accent in text mode
  • 40/\(: begin inline math
  • 41/\): end inline math
  • 42/\*: a line break point between factors of a product; if there is a line break, then the previous line ends with a thin space followed by a multiplication sign (×).
  • 44/\,: thin space in math mode
  • 45/\-: explicit hyphenation point with hyphen if hyphenated and without otherwise
  • 46/\.: dot accent in text mode
  • 47/\/: space for italic correction
  • 58/\:: medium space in math mode
  • 59/\;: thick space in math mode
  • 61/\=: macron accent in text mode, or in environment tabbing: set tabulator
  • 62/\>: medium space in math, or in environment tabbing: advance to next tabulator stop
  • 64/\@: sets the space factor to 1000, typical usage is after abbreviation periods following lowercase letters, e.g.: Mr.\@ John Doe
  • 91/\[: begin unnumbered display math
  • 92/\\: line end/new line
  • 93/\]: end unnumbered display math
  • 94/\^: circumflex accent in text mode
  • 95/\_: underscore in math and text mode
  • 96/\`: grave accent in text mode
  • 123/\{: left curly brace in math mode
  • 124/\|: vertical line as delimiter in math mode
  • 125/\}: right curly brace in math mode
  • 126/\~: tilde accent in text mode
