ssrs-2005

I'm asking this because i'm a n00b when it comes to Powershell.

How do i use Powershell to add a particular domain user or group to a specific reporting role in SSRS2005 (say the Content Manager or Browser role)? Is there a simple one or two line script to achieve it?

Thanks!

Note: this is definately programming related (not server admin), but i am also going to ask this on SF.
