itemList node - How do you get the index of the currently selected item?

I mean honesty..
http://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/classes/class_itemlist.html#class-itemlist

There is nothing about this in the documentation and no function or method to get that index! There are no tutorials anywhere about it either. Such a simple thing, why is it so hidden in godot?

Please help

ah nevermind. I figured it out. You have to connect the itemList to the node with the script.
Then you get this function

func onItemListitemselected( index ):
print (index)

Oh my God... in the "ItemList" not built-in method returns the index of the selected item?!!... This is a cruel joke?

I get it is weird. But this is not an answer, you should add it as a comment.
