I use something like
\DeclareFontFamily{T1}{hlst}{\hyphenchar\font=-1}}
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
for the font with thename hlst. I guess I found the information in the
LaTeX Companion book.

Subject says it all. Preferably without any external package
so that LaTeX2HTML would work with the technique.

Thanks in advance!

To prevent hyphenation, use either:
\newlanguage\nohyphens
\language=\nohyphens
or
\lefthyphenmin=64

If you are stuck with an ancient version of TeX (2.xx) then use
\hyphenpenalty=10000

(original hint by Donald Arseneau, some years or some lives ago)

The above will only function properly if your hyphenation table setup
is done correctly (using the \newlanguage operator). Unfortunately,
this is not always the case. So the second solution might work out
better:
