Think this add functionality without to much complication.

+# Raw-IR-decoder-for-Arduino
+Take raw IR signal from a remote receiver and print out pulse lengths
+ /*
+Some Updates by http://www.instructables.com/member/russ_hensel/
+     add #define for a bunch of user options see section below with
+           #defines
+     add ability to easily change ir pin -- seems not working
+     break into more subroutines, more or less for convenience
+     added check for buffer overrun
+     added/revised output formats of the ir data 
+     added/revised some comments 
+     Tested and compiles under Window 7, Arduino1.6.0, UNO
+         Uses  3.7    K bytes of program
+               1.2    K bytes of dynamic memory
+
+There are other programs for IR decoding, perhaps most notably
+http://www.righto.com/2009/08/multi-protocol-infrared-remote-library.html
+That code is interrupt driven using timers and may in principal be capable
+of being more accurate, but its normal resolution is 50 usec, so it may
+in practice be better or not.
+
+What the code does have is a sophisticated method of interpreting the results
+which allows the representation of the code in just a byte or so ( if the
+protocol is successfully identified ).  It also has nice transmit routines.
+However, for raw discovery of the protocol this code may be more useful.
