I just figured out how to use the LidarColorMapper utility, which is actually very easy (there is just no documentation that I know of, apart from this blog comment http://doc-ok.org/?p=432#comment-1243). However, I couldn't see the colors with LidarViewer. After some poking around I discovered this is because LidarColorMapper misnamed the Colors file in the LiDAR file directory (it named it color), which probably caused LidarViewer not to notice it. Simply renaming the file made the colors visible in LidarViewer.
