/How did you decide which includes to include? <BOSL2/gears.scad> obviously,
but <BOSL2/std.scad> ?
/
Because, at the top of BOSL2/gears.scad, it tells me which files to include:
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// LibFile: gears.scad
// Spur Gears, Bevel Gears, Racks, Worms and Worm Gears.
// Originally based on code by Leemon Baird, 2011, Leemon@Leemon.com
// Almost completely rewritten for BOSL2 by Revar Desmera, 2017-2021,
revarbat@gmail.com
// Includes:
// include <BOSL2/std.scad>
// include <BOSL2/gears.scad>
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
/And what are the basic rules about folder locations for the library and
your fresh scad file please?/
The documentation for OpenSCAD libraries, which explains it much better than
I can, is at:
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual/Libraries
Just download the BOSL2 distribution zip, unzip it, move it to your OpenSCAD
installation's library folder, and rename it from BOSL2-master to BOSL2.
