Inspired by Vortex tiny C startup library I am trying to do something similar but using FASM. However, when I tried to convert his source to FASM format, I seemed to hit a dead end. Here is Vortex's code
Code:
.386
.model flat,stdcall
option casemap:none

ExitProcess       PROTO :DWORD
GetCommandLineA     PROTO 
GetCommandLine        equ <GetCommandLineA>

main         PROTO C :DWORD,:DWORD

GPTR = 40h

.data?
hMem db 512 dup(?)

.code
mainCRTStartup:

 push    esi
 push    edi
 push    ebx
 mov     esi,OFFSET hMem
     lea     edi,[esi+256]
       invoke  GetCommandLine
      lea     edx,[eax-1]
 xor     eax,eax
     mov     ch,32
       mov     bl,9
scan:
   inc     edx
 mov     cl,byte PTR [edx]
   or      cl,cl
       jz      finish
      cmp     cl,32
       je      scan
        cmp     cl,9
        je      scan
        inc     eax
 mov     dword PTR [esi],edi
 add     esi,4
restart:
       mov     cl,byte PTR [edx]
   or      cl,cl
       jz      finish
      cmp     cl,ch
       je      end_of_line
 cmp     cl,bl
       je      end_of_line
 cmp     cl,34
       jne     @f
  xor     ch,32
       xor     bl,9
        jmp     next_char
@@:    
    mov     byte PTR [edi],cl
   inc     edi
next_char:
       inc     edx
 jmp     restart
end_of_line:
 mov     byte PTR [edi],0
    inc     edi
 jmp     scan    
finish:
     pop     ebx
 pop     edi
 pop     esi
 invoke  main,eax,ADDR hMem
  invoke  ExitProcess,eax

END mainCRTStartup    

*Edit* Here's my code and it's working!
Code:
format MS COFF

public mainCRTStartup as '__mainCRTStartup'
extrn '__imp__GetCommandLineA@0' as GetCommandLine:dword
extrn '__imp__ExitProcess@4' as ExitProcess:dword
extrn '_main' as main:dword


section '.text' code readable executable
mainCRTStartup:

 push    esi
 push    edi
 push    ebx
 mov     esi,hMem
    lea     edi,[esi+256]
       call    [GetCommandLine]
    lea     edx,[eax-1]
 xor     eax,eax
     mov     ch,32
       mov     bl,9
scan:
   inc     edx
 mov     cl,[edx]
    or      cl,cl
       jz      finish
      cmp     cl,32
       je      scan
        cmp     cl,9
        je      scan
        inc     eax
 mov     [esi],edi
   add     esi,4
restart:
       mov     cl,[edx]
    or      cl,cl
       jz      finish
      cmp     cl,ch
       je      end_of_line
 cmp     cl,bl
       je      end_of_line
 cmp     cl,34
       jne     @f
  xor     ch,32
       xor     bl,9
        jmp     next_char
@@:    
    mov     [edi],cl
    inc     edi
next_char:
       inc     edx
 jmp     restart
end_of_line:
 mov     byte [edi],0
        inc     edi
 jmp     scan    
finish:
     pop     ebx
 pop     edi
 pop     esi
 push    hMem
        push    eax
 call    main
        push    eax
 call    [ExitProcess]

section '.bss' readable writeable
hMem db 512 dup(?)    
The code assembles fine into obj and links okay with Pelles C.

Notes: Pelles C will merge .text & .bss sections. It doesn't seem to recognize section data directive (so take the "data" word out). It seems to want 2 underscores for the public function, and main is called without [].

Er... the version of Pelles C I used is v6.50 release 4. Not sure if it will work, but try opening main.c and then put in console_wht.obj kernel32.lib msvcrt.lib in the Project options>Library and object files entry. And choose console for the subsystem and X86 for the Machine.
