Beginner help: horizontal line

Beginner help: horizontal line

Hi,

I would like to be able to draw a line in the footer of every page. If I try
to use setupfooter with before=\thinrule or before=\hrule I get some
unexpected results. I want the line to span only the width of the body but
thinrule aligns it to the left from the left edge. \hrule spans the entire
page. I don't want it spanning accross the margins. Maybe I'm doing
something very wrong... please help


Regards,
Derek
