Fonts & Character Sets ⇒ Esperanto and Russian

[usr345]

I wanted to typeset the song in Esperanto and it's translation in Russian. But LaTeX doesn't understand the accented Esperanto characters. Though, the text is saved in utf-8, LaTeX refuses to compile. So I have to use \^ sign, which is quite uncomfortable.

This minimal example with special Esperanto characters is not compiled:

But look, how ugly it is.

Also is it possible to move the '^' symbol a little upwards? Cause it almost merges with small 'c' and 'g'. Is there such font or something?

I use Emacs. It must support all the charsets.
