[Pw_forum] question about DOS-projection

[Guido Fratesi]

Dear Jin,

there are examples included in the distributions in the "example" 
folder. BTW:

Use projwfc.x to project the DOS on individual atoms; then sumpdos.x to 
sum the DOS of the atoms belonging to the "middle part" of the slab.

See PP/examples/example02 for projwfc.x.
The use of sumpdos.x is trivial: sumpdos.x <file1> ... <fileN>

projwfc.x can be used to slice a real space volume, but I guess you are 
not willing to do so. In case, PP/examples/example04

HTH,
Guido
