Underscore in bibtex url
Just to formally answer and close this question:
As Ulrike Fischer answered in the comments, the solution was to use \usepackage{hyperref}
(or \usepackage[hidelinks]{hyperref}
to avoid the ugly boxes) and \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
. This allows properly clicking and copy-&-pasting URLs with underscores.
However, it turned out, using package hyperref
wasn't allowed when trying to submit the paper to IEEE. So I ended up simply changing the URL to something without underscore using goo.gl (or bitly since goo.gl is down).
In case of IEEE templates, when using the file bib
, replacing the underscore with {\_}
should solve the problem. In the case of the question:
@misc{code,
title = {Code},
url = {https://1drv.ms/link{\_}link}
}
