Disabling highlighting entirely

[ELLIOTTCABLE]

So, I'm a little confused by the documentation:

:let g:easytags_auto_highlight = 0

This disables all automatic tags highlighting (regardless of how it was enabled) where automatic means ‘initiated by a Vim automatic command.’

Does this mean that :let g:easytags_auto_highlight = 0 will result in vim-easytags acting exclusively as an auto-tagsfile-regenerator? Because that's all I want out of this plugin; I use color_coded for my semantic highlighting!

(Also, there's a typo in that last sentence. Consider this a docbug! :P)

It's not supported globally, but for each buffer separetely.
Just put

autocmd BufRead * let b:easytags_nohl=''

in your vimrc.
