I virtually hit just about every keys on the keyboard with my head
trying to get out of that vigr command. I tried ESC, Q, CTRL+Z,
CTRL+X, etc. I googled up quite a few keywords (from my other machine)
with no luck. In the end, I just rebooted the machine and used nano.

Oh well, at least I now learned how to get to the GRUB boot-menu and
start the recovery mode.
