Code:

format PE Console 4.0
entry start
include 'D:\root-xtra\fasm\INCLUDE\win32a.inc'
section '.data' data readable writeable
        bufferout db 'HELLO WORLD!',10,0
section '.bss' readable writeable
        byteswritten dd ?
section '.code' code readable executable
start:
        invoke GetStdHandle,STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE
        mov ebp, eax
        invoke WriteConsoleA,ebp,bufferout,13,byteswritten,0
        invoke ExitProcess,0

section '.idata' import data readable
        library\
                kernel32,'kernel32.dll',\
        import kernel32,\
                GetStdHandle,'GetStdHandle',\
                WriteConsoleA,'WriteConsoleA',\
                ExitProcess,'ExitProcess'

Code:

d:\root-xtra\fasm\INCLUDE\macro\import32.inc [7] library [2]:
    if defined name#.redundant
error: undefined symbol 'defined.redundant'.

Most annoying error ever since it's not even in my code. Can anyone help please?

line 17 should not have a continuation backslash.

Code:

                kernel32,'kernel32.dll'

And another thing, is it possible to have dashes as parts of variable names?

Variable names cannot contain symbol characters:

TABLES.INC in fasm source folder wrote:

Code:

symbol_characters db 27
 db 9,0Ah,0Dh,1Ah,20h,'+-/*=<>()[]{}:,|&~#`;\'
