Loading save files and BIOSs

On web builds save files and the BIOS can be loaded by dragging them onto the page or loading them using the ROM file picker. The GBA BIOS must be named gba_bios.bin for the emulator to pick it up. Save files must be named the name of the rom file with the extension .sav. So for example if the ROM was MyRomFile.gba the save file must be called MyRomFile.sav.

On native builds the above naming convention still applies, but the save/BIOS files must be instead located in the same folder as the ROM file, instead of being dragged or loaded in the emulator itself.
