They don't.

the relevant rfc, I think, is this one:
https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3986.txt

the 'unreserved' (allowed) characters are

 unreserved  = ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "." / "_" / "~"

(RFC3986, p. 12)

One would assume that R should also allow all unreserved characters in
file names for documents, vignettes, etc.

Regards,

Brian
