I chose % as an escape character (similar to URL-encoded special characters, and also a slightly unusual character in filenames) to represent characters that cannot be stored in filenames on all supported systems (Windows being the most picky).
So in order to see % from the Amiga side, the host filename must be %25 (25 == hex code for % in ASCII). Of course, files created on the Amiga side will automatically be stored with the correct escaping applied.
