Running jackknify on Apple Silicon chips

Due to the limited python verssion support of casatasks and casatools, the only way for unning jackknify on an Apple Silicon computer is to work within a Rosetta terminal. To do so, open a standard terminal tab and type

env /usr/bin/arch -x86_64 /bin/zsh --login

You can then proceed with the standard procecure for installing your favorite python or environment manager, and, finally, jackknify. To our knowledge, the most up-to-date version of python that can support the casatasks and casatools libraries is v3.8.
