I want to use vimtex and enable highlighting for all filetypes, except tex files. For tex files I explicitly want to disable highlighting.
How could I do that?
Important: The solution should allow to use <leader>ll for compilation of the tex files, without enabling highlighting again!
I would install a personal syntax file, e.g. in .vim/syntax/tex.vim, to override the default with the content:
let b:current_syntax = 'tex'
In addition, you should add
let g:vimtex_syntax_enabled = 0
to prevent vimtex from patching the syntax script.
