You can see the psselect(1) method explained at
https://www.schaffter.ca/mom/momdoc/tables-of-contents.html

If you're using -Tpdf then qpdf(1) can also re-arrange page order and
has r3 for the third-from-end page, and z for the last page.

The mom macros have a method of moving the table of contents with -Tpdf
that depends on gropdf(1)'s .pdfpagename and .pdfswitchtopage.  (Deri,
I don't think they're documented?)  mom uses them with the page name
MOM:TOC.  Perhaps mm, or an mm user, could also benefit from them for
.TC.  Hard to say without more investigation.
