pandoc can't find pdflatex now.

it's here on my system:

 /Library/TeX/Root/bin/x86_64-darwin/pdflatex



if someone has a fix for this, that would be great.

Can you run `pdflatex` normally from the command-line (i.e. is it in
your `$PATH`)?

If you installed MacTeX or BasicTex then your PATH would have been 
appended to by a file `TeX`, which contains the path to the current TeX 
binaries of `/Library/TeX/texbin`, in the directory `/etc/paths.d`. If 
that file doesn't exist, then you will either need to create it with 
those contents or add the path `/Library/TeX/texbin` to PATH by other 
means.

ah ha, verified texbin on my system, and that pdflatex executes, we're 
halfway there. this makes it pretty certain it's a PATH problem.

Logging out and logging back on should have done the trick.  The PATH
variable is set in your shell's initialization file (like .bashrc) and
exported into the environment.  I can't recall ever having an issue on
Linux where I had to reboot to cure a problem like that.  (Or on Unix,
for that matter, since I started on AT&T Unix System V Release 2.)

macOS is based on UNIX but has been "improved". In this case, for the 
PATH to be updated with the addition contained in the `/etc/paths.d/TeX` 
file, the `path_helper` utility has to be run. This is done so in 
`/etc/profile`. Therefore you need to either source `/etc/profile` in 
the current shell or open a new shell, which of course is what happened 
when you restarted.
