Yes, it is true that this is not yet available from the menus or keyboard;
I will put this on the urgent wish list. You should assign the variable
"this page header" to the desired header (or "odd page header" and
"odd page header" for permanent ones) and similarly for footers.
Assignments are created using E-=. I recommend you to put them
into a style file.

You may use the "underline" and "overline" macros
(type "\ u n d e r l i n e return") and the tab key.
In the argument of an assignement you have to be a bit careful,
because the tab key has another meaning; you may use
insert->space->horizontal->tab instead.

There is no equivalent for this, because headers and footers
are not thought of as consisting of three parts and a rule.
We consider them rather as entities and leave the formatting
to the author, as explained above.

E-! and E-?
