I don't understand the question.  SHA 256 is not used to create wallet files. Do you want instructions on how to set up a standard wallet client?

Use Scrypt instead, sha256D will be attacked by ASIC miners.

Alternate cryptocurrencies section will be good place to find answer to your question

I see. Then you need to wait till you can post in the alt-currencies section.

No matter what you come up with, it will be attacked.

While you are waiting to post in the alt forum can you tell us exactly why you want your own coin?

Sorry?

There isn't even a certainty that you can always mine bitcoins with your asic.  Bitcoin is modular, and theoretically could add any other similar hashing algo to work in series with SHA256.  If this were to happen, all those ASIC wouldn't be completely useless, but would be like a V8 on a moped.  The limiting factor of mining would become the other algo in use.

At least the GPU's could still be used for games.
