I'm trying to use PowerShell with SharePoint. I'd like my PowerShell scripts to load my SharePoint farm configuration from files rather than either hard coding the configuration in the scripts, or having to pass in the same parameters each time.

This the kind of information I need to store.

WebFrontEnds: Web1, Web2, Web3
CentralAdmin: Central1
Index: Web1
ContentWebApps: http://user1, http://user2

Does PowerShell easily load this data from CSV, XML, or other formats?
