Disable Vim plugin for certain filetypes

Hi all,

I'd like to disable a plugin for certain filetypes in Vim. I'm a Vim newbie, so take it slow with me :)

I have the autocomplpop plugin, and I really like it. However, if I'm editing a LaTeX file, it shows completions for every single English language word I've already used. It's distracting! I'd like to disable it for .tex files, but I have no idea how to do so.

Thank you!

+1  A: 

Try putting this in your .vimrc after you enabled filetype plugins.

autocmd FileType tex :AcpDisable

This should disable the auto completion for tex files.
