Both osgViewer::Viewer and CompositeViewer can work with GraphicsWindowEmbedded,
and therefore will work with GLUT.

However, I wouldn't ever recommend using GLUT to anyone, the osgviewerGLUT
example is really just their for those familiar with GLUT based OpenGL
examples to
see how the OSG can play nice with GLUT.  GLUT is still a incredible
limited though,
and deliberately so as it was never intended to do more than support a
few simple
OpenGL examples.

Using the OSG's inbuilt window capabilities will provide you with a
far more flexible and
scalable viewer, so there is no real technical need for GLUT, it only
adds limitations
to OSG applications, rather any additional functionality.

Robert.
