I know I can do it with GLUT. But, I have a big project and I had problem adding GLUT (I am using Delphi) to it.
So, what other options do I have?

You can’t do it with standard OpenGL functions, unless you basically have textures with text in them, or a list of characters on a texture that you draw from. But don’t reinvent the wheel – I would recommend FTGL for rendering text in an OpenGL view. It has several different rendering methods and takes care of things like kerning for you, supports unicode, and has good text metrics features too.
