Look at TSynPluginTemplateEdit in  ide\sourcesyneditor.pas

You do need to parse the "param()", that isn't done by SynEdit, but the IDE
- the search starts in  ide\codetemplatesdlg.pas line 790
- and probably  ide\codemacroprompt.pas  ExecuteCodeTemplate()

It's a long time since I looked at that...
