This means that one can add support for these four software entry types to any other BibLaTeX style used in documents typeset in LaTeX. It requires the Biber backend. Full documentation and examples are included in the package, as well as links to the repository where development takes place. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/biblatex-contrib/biblatex-softw… More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/biblatex-software ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
