I believe that dot 1 dot 8 produces a back slash as in what is used to separate directory names in Windows paths. I am fairly confident I have seen some accented characters use dot 8, but I usually was looking at DuoLingo in 7 dot computer Braille where the accent always uses the same two character prefix to the Latin letter rather than being inconsistent. So when I started out in 8 dot, and saw patterns I didn’t recognize on my iPhone I just switched translation using with dots 1,2,4,5 .
Also, if you can find it on-line I believe one of the appendixes of the Braille Note Touch lists all of the computer Braille codes.
