General ⇒ move `auxillary' files to a different folder

[nich]

As I'm sure everyone who has ever used LaTeX knows, several files are created when one compiled a document. Specifically I get a performance monitor file, a text document, a BBL file and a .aux file in addition to the pdf file. Is there a way to make all these files except the pdf appear in another directory so theat I have only the .tex file and the .pdf file in the directory that I created the .tex file in?

I ask because when I have several tex documents in one directory, the folders become messy.

Thanks
