I haven't been around for a while so I'm not sure if this possibility was brought up by new plotscripting advances: Is there a way to script freemovement, and if so, using what command? (though I doubt any command uses the pixel argument right?)
By free movement, I'm refering to the way the heroes move in some games such as Chrono Trigger, aka, not a full square each time you press a key...

Yeah, it's possible. Here's a rudimentary script snippet to give you an idea.

Code:

 while (done==false) do (
   #keypress/movement checks
   if (keyispressed(key:up)) then (y:=y--5,setnpcdirection(0,up))
   if (keyispressed(key:down)) then (y:=y+5,setnpcdirection(0,down))
   if (keyispressed(key:left),and,keyispressed(key:right)==false) then (x:=x--5,setnpcdirection(0,left))
   if (keyispressed(key:right),and,keyispressed(key:left)==false) then (x:=x+5,setnpcdirection(0,right))

   #bounds checks
   if (x<<19*20) then (x:=19*20)
   if (y<<14*20) then (y:=14*20)
   if (x>>42*20) then (x:=42*20)
   if (y>>26*20) then (y:=26*20)

   #end of cycle
   puthero(me,x,y)
   wait(1)
 )


Note that this doesn't check for running into walls.
