Hello Alex, all the python code is pretty much written. Victor even did some kind of port already.
https://github.com/volaya/qgis-lidartools-plugin But I am struggling with how to add this code as a plugin such it can be searched for. Maybe I should provide it as a zip package ("Install from ZIP") rather than make it a plugin that can be queried from QGIS. I have heard that some people are not happy with the LAStools binding scripts being hosted on the official QGIS site as LAStools is not entirely open source. The initial attempt of bundling the binaries with the scripts as you can find it here: https://github.com/volaya/qgis-lidartools-plugin/tree/master/lidartools/bin/lastools will also need to change back to how it used to be ("setup the PATH to the LAStools and - if needed to Wine") as the binaries of LAStools change too often to have them inside the processing python bindings which almost never change. I was looking for documentation on how to prepare such an external plugin so users can load it into QGIS - either online or as a ZIP.
