+### Ubuntu with XLSX import & export
+
+Start by installing all required dependencies.
+
+```
+$ sudo apt-get install bison libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev libxml2-dev libzip-dev
+
+$ git clone https://github.com/jmcnamara/libxlsxwriter.git
+$ cd libxlsxwriter/
+$ make
+$ sudo make install
+```
+
+At this point, it is important to refresh the dynamic link library cache:
+```
+$ sudo ldconfig
+```
+
+Proceed with downloading and compiling sc-im.
+```
+$ cd ..
+$ git clone https://github.com/andmarti1424/sc-im.git
+$ cd sc-im/src
+$ make
+$ sudo make install
+```
+
+Type `scim` at the command line prompt to run the program.
+
+For legacy `.xsl` file reading support, please refer to [this wiki page](https://github.com/andmarti1424/sc-im/wiki/Ubuntu-16.04.1-with-libxlsreader).
+
