Any chances to the code you want to contribute?

The standard pressure correction never changes the density, but just
adds an additional potential correction to change the pressure.

You will need to write a script like calc_pressure_gromacs.sh for LAMMPS.
This calc_pressure_lammps.sh takes one argument - a filename, which
contains one line
"Pressure=XXX"
after it got executed.

See Section 9.1 of the manual to understand how to add a script in user space.
