Hi Dalon, Not very difficult to make, but you would need to dig in a bit in the zim object structure.
Basically you want to modify the equation editor plugin to listen to the end-of-word signal, and trigger the dialog when you match a latex equation. The code for this plugin is seperated in zim/plugins/equationeditor.py and the base class zim/plugins/base/imagegenerators.py To see an example of how to do the automatic text replacement have a look at the "insertsymbol" plugin.
