What is Mage and in what way is it useful?

Question

Hi~

I keep seeing references to Mage, but I don't understand specifically what it does and why it's useful/popular. If someone could give a quick rundown of it, it would be much appreciated!

Thanks ~

Mage.exe is a Manifest Generation and Editing command line Tool for .NET Framework applications. There is also a UI version MageUI.exe

A typical use is manually creating your ClickOnce deployment manifests.
