What's a macro?
A macro is a function that does text manipulation inside of Velocity. You can feed it parameters, and it will print out a string for you. Macros are not like traditional methods or functions, in that they don't return data, and while they can manipulate text based upon the parameters you pass in, it can only print.
#css(FILE_NAME)
Creates a link element like so: <link href="FILE_NAME" rel="stylesheet" type="text/stylesheet" />
#js(FILE_NAME)
