The biblatex manual states that the entry type "software" usually doesn't have a driver and falls back to "misc" as its driver. With the IEEE style this doesn't print URLs. Therefore: is there any way to remap software to use the "online" driver as its fallback?

  • Do you really use biblatex and the biblatex-ieee style? In an example I got to see the URL for a software entry. Maybe you can show an MWE?

  • Actually, I just noticed that a post-processing step of my bib file converts every url tag to link. :/

You can use

\DeclareBibliographyAlias{software}{online}

to use the @online driver for @software types. You can learn a bit more about this command in What exactly is the relationship Biblatex refers to as an alias of an entry type? And how should the formatting of aliased entry types be configured?
