Dear King lau

  I think people mentioned possibilities for this a while back,

 there is also a script for CNS which Paul Adams wrote based on Lee and
Richards static accessibility algorithm - this outputs a PDB of only the
interface residues - also the residues in context flagged by boolean
values written into the B-factor column. And also the calculated area.
 
  in CNS version 0.9a this is called 'buried_surface.inp'

  you have to know a bit about CNS expressions for molecule selection
(there is an excellent guide to this in the documentation) and
you also need to run the generate.inp script first but it does a good job
 cheers
