I have installed RC2 now, but I see no difference in formula editor.

I see no difference. And why should there be a difference? The command
"binom" takes two operands, so the expression is finished after binom {
A } { B } and I see no need for brackets around it.

Do you want bug reports for these problems?

I personally use blanks only where it is necessary to separate things.
In addition I use carriage returns to structure expressions, especially
matrices.
For example I write
f%prime(x)=func e^-{x^2 over 2}
and
6 a + 5,5b
latter because of the bug, that in 6a the a is not italic.
Kind regards
Regina
