Subject: [PATCH] Update pycmap_install.rst

pip install instructions did not work for me due to issues with python versions. Added install instructions that worked for me on Ubuntu 19.10 in a python3 conda environment.

   pip install pycmap
 
+You may find the above command installs pycmap to python2. Since pycmap requires python3, this causes issues. If this happens to you, try the following commands:
 
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+  python3 -m pip install pycmap
+  python3 -m pip install IPython
+   
+To test your installation, one easy way is to go into a python interactive shell and try importing the module:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+  $ python3
+  >>> import pycmap
+  >>> 
+  #if you get no errors after importing (as above), then you are good to go!

 In order to use pycmap, you will need to obtain an API key from https://simonscmap.com/apikeymanagement.
