Research direction

Start by locating the Sphinx documentation configuration for the traitsui, envisage, and chaco projects, then check how their documentation currently links to GitHub code. Review how the sphinx_copybutton extension is enabled and run the documentation builds. Done means the affected documentation provides the copy-button alternative without breaking existing GitHub links.

Description

At the moment, in a few projects (traitsui, envisage, chaco), the documentation links to code on GitHub. Alongside linking to GitHub code, it would be nice to provide an alternative e.g. a copy button. We can do this easily using the sphinx_copybutton sphinx extension.
