An LTF file is what we call a frogans short-cut. It’s a small file that tells the Frogans Player to open a particular frogans site. If you open one in a text editor, you’ll see something like this:

<leaptofrogans address="frogans*Demo"/>

If you have the Frogans Player installed on your computer, then double-clicking on an LTF file will make the Frogans Player open the frogans site at the frogans address written in the file.

The only version of the Frogans Player that has been available was a Windows-only beta, released 2005. We’re no longer distributing it, but are currently developing the new cross-platform version (desktop and mobile). So for now, you’ll have to wait until the new Frogans Player gets released before you can really put an LTF file to use.
