The backslash and vertical bar/pipe symbol key does not work on both a physical UK keyboard and the on-screen keyboard when using the UK keyboard layout in DOSBox-Pure.
Pressing \ or | on the DOS command line does nothing, but the on-screen keyboard will produce a hash instead of a backslash. Considering that the hash key on a UK keyboard layout is where the backslash key is located on a US layout this issue might have something to do with the UK and US layouts being mixed up. All other keys work fine.

Googling "DOS UK keyboard layout" showed me a layout like this:
This seems to match what I get in DOSBox Pure with the on-screen-keyboard. The \ and | key is located between left shift and Z.
Inside the code of DOSBox, that hardware key is called KBD_extra_lt_gt which matches a lot of European keyboard layouts and why I drew a < character there. Ideally the on-screen-keyboard would reflect the keyboard layout but... not high on my priority list.
