Well, the all-in-one is the method I tried numerous times.

Now I've discovered that I can navigate to j901/bin using Finder. There I
open the jqt.command shell. It opens a terminal window:

Last login: Tue Apr 16 20:50:07 on ttys000

/Applications/j901/bin/jqt.command ; exit;

(base) Pablos-MacBook-Pro:~ pla$ /Applications/j901/bin/jqt.command ; exit;

And then I get the old Jqt window I'm used to. I can't use the launchpad,
but I've put an alias in the Application folder for the shell and can start
J from there. Ugly, but it seems to work.
