I'm trying to find a way to have my individual archived entries to have a file name equal to the entry title.

I use <$MTEntryTitle$>.asp as the Archive file template. The problem is that spaces cause the %20 url thingie and I want to avoid this.

Is there an attribute or plugin that will let me use the entry title as the file name for my archived entries but replace the spaces in the title with another sybol like an underscore or dash?

I think www.shauninman.com is doing this and I would like to replicate it.

Try using
CODE
<$MTEntryTitle dirify="1"$>.asp

That will replace spaces with underscores and replace extended characters with their lower form.

dashes are more se friendly, you can use MTDirifyPlus for that.
