How can I use MATLAB classes with source control software that will not accept the @ character in a file name?

I am trying to put a MATLAB class under source control in Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0. MATLAB requires an @ character in the class name and the source control will not accept an @ character in a file name.

This change has been incorporated into the documentation in Release 14 Service Pack 3 (R14SP3). For previous releases, read below for any additional information:

The ability to use class names without the @ character is not available in MATLAB. Note that most file systems have the ability to quote non-standard characters in filenames (possibly with an escape character). You can check with your source control software technical support for a workaround.
