This file is public domain.

A couple ideas:

Optional line numbering of verbatim blocks.

Generalize toc files to other kinds of generated listings, e.g., figures.

How about list processing macros like those in ``TeX in Practice''? 
Or any of the myriad other list packages around these days.
[No: the many alternatives can stay as separate packages.]

check for updated included files: make fetch.
commit xeplain.tex and any other source files.
update version number/dates in Makefile, NEWS, doc/eplain.texi, doc/eplain.1;
  make all.
write ChangeLog entries.
write announcement.
commit.
make dist.

scp -p eplain-*.tar.gz tug:/home/ftp/tex
mv eplain-*.tar.gz $misc/archive/eplain
on tug,
  cd /home/ftp/tex
  tar xf eplain-$newver.tar.gz
  relink eplain $newver
  ln -si eplain-$newver.tar.gz eplain.tar.gz
  rm -rf eplain-$oldver
  cp -i /home/ftp/tex/eplain-*.tar.gz /home/ftp/historic/macros/eplain/
    # oldver should already be there, but just in case. Then:
  rm eplain-$oldver.tar.gz
on tug, update version in ~www/eplain/index.html

mv eplain-*.upload.zip ~/tmp/
visit https://ctan.org/pkg/eplain/
