Ok, I can now report on the aftermath. Lacking the self-control to wait for
help figuring this out, I took the daring and risky route of performing the
hard-reboot: unplugging the pi, then plugging it back in and hoping the problem
would disappear. It would not reboot. So the problem was -not- a minor one.
I put in another sd card praying the os on it would boot, which would mean that
the problem was the os on the sd card, and that the pi and monitor themselves
were undamaged. It worked. Big sigh of relief. I then re-imaged the sd card
and put it back in, and.. the original os came back up. I now have things
setup again more-or-less the way they were before, ready for me to get going
coding again.
