Vim: how do I disable the default LogiPat plugin?

Question

In Vim 7.4 there's a default plugin called "LogiPat". A command this plugin exposes is :ELP, which is shadowing another command I use a lot :Explore. For that last command I always use :E but since LogiPat exposes :ELP I need to type in :Ex which is more work.

I don't use the LogiPat plugin and would like to disable it. How do I do this?

I've already tried setting the following line in my .vimrc:

let g:loaded_LogiPat = "v3"

in the hopes that this would prevent LogiPat from loading. But that did not work.

I'm hoping there's a simple way to do this that does not require me to move or delete the plugin from the vim/plugin directory.

This is a bug in the LogiPat plugin:

" Load Once: {{{1
if &cp || exists("loaded_logipat")
 finish
endif
let g:loaded_LogiPat = "v3"

It sets g:loaded_LogiPat but checks for loaded_logipat. (And the file is named logiPat.vim. Someone's really inconsistent with their capitalization.)

The workaround is to set

let g:loaded_logipat = 1

in your .vimrc.

Has anyone reported this to the LogiPat author (or the vim project)? – Randy Morris Jul 29 '15 at 12:34

Nevermind, I see the latest version (v4b) on the author's webpage has been updated. Now the filename and variable are "logiPat.vim" and "loaded_logiPat" respectively. – Randy Morris Jul 29 '15 at 12:45
