I may, also add auto miner reboot when a new dag goes live, I notice many miners fail to switch over to it properly.

Does that include the qtminer or the ethminer modified by Genoil? I use both to mine and do not see that.

Language is autoit. It can be compiled by downloading autoit. I can make the .exe, I will make it available soon =)

What language is it? How do we compile the file. I would like to use that feature as my hard disk is quite small.

Simple, Auto-It script works, it can be compiled into a .exe for ease of use:
It just deletes everything except current used DAG and the newest DAG(one going to be used).
I made it because newest genoil ethminer crashes whenever I try to set the autodag deletion feature. On 12 different rigs it crashes =(
