[Soot-list] Soot bootstrap helper shell script

[Wei Peng]

A hotfix. The last line of the script should be:

[ -f ${THE_JAR} ] && java ${JVM_OPTS*-*$(free | awk '($7) {printf "-Xmx%d",
$7/2}')} -jar ${THE_JAR} "$@"

i.e., a dash, instead of a colon, should be between "JVM_OPTS" and "$".

The github version has been updated:
```sh
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pw4ever/dev-env/master/bin/soot -O
$HOME/soot && chmod +x $HOME/soot
```

Attached is the correct script.

I apologize for the error.

Wei.
