Oh, it's actually pretty simple. Here's what you'd put in your events. The logic can be easily ported into any language.

Create event/constructor:
Code:
xSpeed = 0;
ySpeed = 0;
maxSpeed = 4;

Step/frame:
Code:
//Friction
if(!place_free(x, y + 1)){
 if(xSpeed > 0) xSpeed -= 0.5;
 if(xSpeed < 0) xSpeed += 0.5;
};

//Gravity
if(place_free(x, y + 1)) ySpeed += 1;
else ySpeed = 0;

//Keyboard
if(keyboard_check(vk_left) && xSpeed > -maxSpeed) xSpeed -= 1;
if(keyboard_check(vk_right) && xSpeed < maxSpeed) xSpeed += 1;
if(keyboard_check_pressed(vk_space) && !place_free(x, y + 1)) ySpeed = -10;

//////////////////////////////////////////////////
//INSERT REST OF YOUR STEP EVENT HERE//
//////////////////////////////////////////////////

move(xSpeed, ySpeed);

Move script:
Code:
/*First we get a couple variables.
h is horizontal movement.
v is vertical movement.*/
h=argument0;
v=argument1;

/*Now what we do is instead of checking if a point is free a certain distance away,
we check every pixel ahead and then move a pixel until the loop runs out or we hit
a solid object.

i has to be absolute because if the speed is negative, it will cause the loop to
break, and we don't want that.*/
for(i=abs(h); i>0; i-=1){
   if(!place_free(x, y+1) && place_free(x+(h/abs(h)),y+1) && x+(h/abs(h)) > 0 && x+(h/abs(h)) < room_width){
   x += h/abs(h);
   y += 1;
   }
   else
   if(!place_free(x, y+1) && place_free(x+(h/abs(h)),y-1) && !place_free(x+(h/abs(h)),y) && x+(h/abs(h)) > 0 && x+(h/abs(h)) < room_width){
   x+=h/abs(h);
   y -= 1;
   }
   else
   if(place_free(x+(h/abs(h)),y) && x+(h/abs(h)) > 0 && x+(h/abs(h)) < room_width) x+=h/abs(h)
   else break;
};

for(i=abs(v); i>0; i-=1){
   if(place_free(x,y+(v/abs(v)))) y+=v/abs(v)
   else break;
};
