 # Release notes
 
+## [v1.4.1](https://github.com/VirtusLab/scala-cli/releases/tag/v1.4.1)
+
+### Pass compiler args as an `@argument` file
+You can shorten or simplify a Scala CLI command by using an `@argument` file to specify a text file that contains compiler arguments. 
+```text title=args.txt
+-d
+outputDirectory
+```
+The feature may help to work around the [Windows command line character limit](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/shell-experience/command-line-string-limitation), 
+among other things, making sure your scripts run on any operating system of your choice.
+```bash
+scala-cli run -e 'println("Hey, I am using an @args file!")' @args.txt
+```
+The feature works similarly to the [command-line argument files feature of Java 9](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/tools/java.htm#JSWOR-GUID-4856361B-8BFD-4964-AE84-121F5F6CF111) 
+and fixes backwards compatibility with the old `scala` runner (pre-Scala-3.5.0).

+
+### Explicitly enable or disable multithreading in Scala Native
+It is now possible to explicitly enable or disable multithreading in Scala Native builds.
+You can do it by setting the `//> using nativeMultithreading` directive:
+```scala title=native_multithreading.sc
+//> using platform native
+//> using nativeMultithreading
+import scala.concurrent._
+import scala.concurrent.duration._
+import ExecutionContext.Implicits.global
+val promise = Promise[Int]()
+val thread = new Thread(new Runnable {
+    def run(): Unit = {
+      Thread.sleep(100)
+      promise.success(42)
+    }
+  })
+thread.start()
+val result = Await.result(promise.future, 2.seconds)
+println(result)
+```
+Or the `--native-multithreading` command line option:
+```bash
+scala-cli run native_multithreading.sc --native --native-multithreading
+```
