I'm just applying some custom CSS to <a> HTML tags. I'm not creating any 
macros, the lists of links are just generated by TiddlyWiki itself, like 
those in the sidebar.

I'm doing something like:

div.tc-tab-content.tc-vertical a::before {
    content: "[before]";
}


div.tc-tab-content.tc-vertical a::after {

    content: "[after]";

}
