-    abaqus_download(model_name; dryrun=false)
-
-Download ABAQUS model from Internet. `model_name` is the name of the input
-file.
-
-Given some model name from documentation, e.g., `et22sfse`, download that
-file to local file system. This function uses environment variables to
-determine the download url and place of storage.
-
-In order to use this function, one must set environment variable
-`ABAQUS_DOWNLOAD_URL`, which determines a location where to download. For
-example, if the path to model is `https://domain.com/v6.14/books/eif/et22sfse.inp`,
-`ABAQUS_DOWNLOAD_URL` will be the basename of that path, i.e.,
-`https://domain.com/v6.14/books/eif`.
-
-By default, the model will be downloaded to current directory. If that is not
-desired, one can set another environment variable `ABAQUS_DOWNLOAD_DIR`, and
-in that case the file will be downloaded to that directory.
-
-Function call will return full path to downloaded file or nothing, if download
-is failing because of missing environment variable `ABAQUS_DOWNLOAD_DIR`.
