Using custom TypeConverter outside of PropertyGrid

From: Cartoper <cartoper@xxxxxxxxx>

I have written all these wonderful custom TypeConverter for my enums
to display in a PropertyGrid. I would now like to use the same
TypeConverter to save out and read in the values to and from a text
file, in a generic fashion. I would like to have a function like
this:

void WriteValue(StreamWriter sw, string name, Enum value);
.
