      Purpose: We use this utility function to insert a ANSI/win32 color code
             | and Bright style marker before a string, and reset the color and
             | style after the string. We then return the string with these
             | codes inserted.
  
      @param out_string: the string to be colored
      @type out_string: str
      @param color: a string signifying which color to use. Defaults to 'grn'.

                  |     ['blk', 'blu', 'cyn', 'grn', 'mag', 'red', 'wht', 'yel']
      @type color: str
  
      @returns: the modified string, including the ANSI/win32 color codes.
