This one seems to be internal. It's not found in any of the
templates, but I find it in the C5Gen.dll. Here is something I just
threw together:
#Template(CodeTemplates,'Code templates'),FAMILY('CW20'),FAMILY('ABC')

#PROMPT('Assign return value:',FIELD),%ProcedureToCallReturnValue
#PROMPT('Initiate thread',CHECK),%ProcedureToCallStart

%ProcedureToCall %ProcedureToCallParameters
#END
#END
#ELSE

%ProcedureToCallReturnValue = %ProcedureToCall
#ELSE
#IF(%ProcedureToCallStart)
Start(%ProcedureToCall, %ProcedureToCallStack)
#ELSE
%ProcedureToCall
#END
#END
#END
