This definition of PDOS does not make sense, to me at least, sorry.

Then, it is what you have shown previously in the filproj file. An electronic band extends 
in the BZ, so that you have also a dependency on the k-point.

How do you identify the surface state? This depends a lot on the system, on the 
geometry... It seems to me that your task is not a general purpose one, those that can be 
done automagically by some utility.

Not much more than before, sorry.
