If you place the new syntax file under the ~/.vim/syntax directory,
then it will override the syntax file shipped with Vim. This is
explained under ":help mysyntaxfile-replace".

For example, to disable the syntax highligting only for the html
files, you can create a html.vim file under ~/.vim/syntax directory
with only the following line:

let b:current_syntax = "html"
