I have Tabbar installed and when I am using some function like describe-key in emacs the resulting *help* buffer has a tab bar at the top. This is a waste of space and is distracting. How can I disable the tab bar in popup buffers or just special buffers in general?

(add-hook 'help-mode-hook 'tabbar-local-mode)
tabbar-local-mode:
Toggle local display of the tab bar.
With prefix argument ARG, turn on if positive, otherwise off.
Returns non-nil if the new state is enabled.
When turned on, if a local header line is shown, it is hidden to show
the tab bar. The tab bar is locally hidden otherwise. When turned
off, if a local header line is hidden or the tab bar is locally
hidden, it is shown again. Signal an error if Tabbar mode is off.

Awesome! This is just what I was looking for! Do you know if there would be some way to disable it in all special buffers? I could not find anything like a `new-buffer-hook`. – Prgrm.celeritas Dec 02 '16 at 23:38

Actually I found it. `special-mode-hook`. Thanks again! – Prgrm.celeritas Dec 02 '16 at 23:55
