To easily disable LogiPat: put

let loaded_logiPat= 1

in your .vimrc. That will prevent logiPat.vim from loading. Of course,
to re-enable it again, just remove that line (or comment it out).

OTOH, you might want to learn what logiPat provides. For example,
assume you want to find a line with two patterns in it:

:LP "pat1" && "pat2"

will find such a line (assuming it exists, of course).
