Is it possible to change the directory in which savegames/battery files/anything created by the emulator are stored? By default they all end up in my ROMs folder, which is not really desirable. If not, just say so, it'll at least bring an end to my Googling in vain <_<

It's saved in the config file: 
$ ./VisualBoyAdvance 
VisualBoyAdvance version 1.7.2 [SDL]
Searching for file VisualBoyAdvance.cfg
Searching current directory: ***
Searching home directory: /home/***
Searching system config directory: /usr/local/etc
Searching executable directory
Configuration file NOT FOUND (using defaults)
Maybe you can grab a vba.ini from some Windows version and rename it. I don't know if it'll work, though. /edit: They do seem to match. Although I don't know how you got your VBA, you'll find a VisualBoyAdvance.cfg in the v19 source code "pack".
