   how to change from $latex ....$ to $...$
   So, if I want to post $latex 1+1=2$, I could post it as $1+1=2$.
   Thanks!

   This is probably a bad idea since it's likely it will break (the rare) "real" text in your post.

   Example:

   I bought the drink for $2, and the the popcorn for $3.

   That said, if you really want to do this, you can change the \$latex[= ] to \$ in http://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-latex/trunk/wp-latex.php?rev=255694#L112

   The plugin itself will probably never have this feature, so every time you upgrade the plugin, you'll have to make this change.

   Alternatively, could write a little baby plugin yourself to "fix" this, so that you don't have to change the plugin code every time there is a new version.

   /*
   Plugin Name: My WP LaTeX "fix"
   */
   
   function my_wp_latex_fix( $content ) {
           return preg_replace( '#(\s+\$(?!latex))(.*?[^\\\\])(\$\s+)#i', '\\1latex \\2\\3', $content );
   }
   
   add_filter( 'the_content', 'my_wp_latex_fix', 5 );
