To mine with coinchoose do you need every client and .conf? For every coin?

Well, coinchoose.com, if it's what you mean only show "profitability" of coins against bitcoin/litecoin. it does not have any pools and so on.
you may consider throw you hashing power to my pool, if you up to mining altcoins  :)

Try pointing your cgminer to multipool.in
It automatically switches to the most profitable coin available.  You only need one scrypt-based config file for your miner and it will do all the switching work for you.
(Im not affiliated with them but I did use it and found that the service worked pretty well.  Ive since decided to just stick with LTC however as it can be quite difficult to actually profit from constant coin-switching.  If you are constantly switching to the most profitable coin you also need to be constantly trading them otherwise by the time you collect a meaningful amount the profitability may well have dropped back down again.  Too much time required for me)

Are there any others auto-switching pools like multipool.in?

Ok.  I got cgminer and pointed it to multipool.in
Where do I put my scrypt config file for the miner?  Do I need one for every coin?

Put the 'StartMining.bat' ( NON TEXT FORMAT FOR SAVING THE FILE ) in your CGMiner folder. Double click. If your settings are correct, you should be online in a matter of ~1 minute.

Could you give me an example of the file?
Sorry. I'm a noob.  :(
