namedtupledefs.namedtuple

Provides drop-in-replacement without the use of the optional default values. See docstring.

>>> Point = namedtuple('Point', ['x', 'y', 'z'])
>>> Point.__doc__                   # docstring for the new class with defaults
'Point(x, y, z)\n    with optional default values fielddefaults=()'
>>> Point(11, 22, 33)               # instantiate with partial positional args or keywords
Point(x=11, y=22, z=33)
