Geeks do it with LuaTeX :)

I'm not sure if this still works since I have no luatex here, but in
theory you can play with something like this:

% do whatever you want with it
\def\mychar#1#2{#1: #2\crlf}

\starttext
\ctxlua{
	fontname = 'texgyrepagella-regular.otf'
	tfmdata = fonts.tfm.read_and_define("file:" .. fontname, 655360)

	w = tfmdata.characters
	for i=0,100000 do
		if w[i] then
			tex.sprint("\\strut\\mychar{" .. i, "}{\\type{", w[i].name, "}}")
		end
	end
}
\stoptext
