More things to contemplate:

Limiting the number of entries in the index.gmi to 25 or so, keep /all/ entries in a separate archive.gmi.

To distinguish between the lasted n items for the main index, and listing all entries for the archive-index on the other hand, is fairly simple. It amounts to one more command (head) in the pipeline (aside from header and footer text).

The archive-index is then produced (1 line in Makefile) and referenced (in the main index) and that's pretty much it.
