For emacs, just bind a key (C-. say) to (ucs-insert #X2218). ucs-insert comes from ucs-tables.

You can also activate the TeX input method using C-u C-\ TeX RET (if leim is installed). Then you can insert many characters by typing their TeX names. The character ∘ can be inserted by typing \comp, for instance. Of course, this is not very useful unless you already know some TeX. -- /NAD
