How do I disable Centaur Tabs in ispell Choices buffer

Question

I need to disable the Centaur-Tabs in the Choices buffer of ispell/flyspell. In Centaur Tab's site it says to add a hook, so I tried this:

(add-hook 'ispell-choices-buffer 'centaur-tabs-local-mode)

But I still get the tabs, and I can't see the words:

I'm using Emacs 27.0.91 in Windows 10.

Answer 1

Emacs 26.3 contains an ispell-update-post-hook within ispell-command-loop; however, that hook runs in the working buffer just after the ispell-choices-buffer is created. I have never installed and/or used centaur-tabs, but it is my understanding (based upon a brief review of that library) that most of the code was copied straight from the original tabbar.el written by David Ponce. As such, centaur-tabs almost certainly relies upon the header-line-format variable to generate the view of tabs. Although the following code is untested, perhaps it will suffice to answer the question:

(add-hook 'ispell-update-post-hook
  (lambda ()
    (with-current-buffer ispell-choices-buffer
      (setq header-line-format nil))))

Answer 2

This is a slight improvement to lawlist's answer (which quite did not work for me). One could instead just call centaur-tabs-local-mode on the ispell-choices-buffer in the ispell-update-post-hook:

(add-hook 'ispell-update-post-hook
          (lambda ()
            (with-current-buffer ispell-choices-buffer
              (centaur-tabs-local-mode))))
