#' \code{duprateExpBoxplot} Duplication rate ~ total reads per kilobase (RPK) boxplot
#'
#' This function makes a boxplot showing the distribution of per gene duplication rate versus
#' the reads per kilobase (RPK) inside gene expression bins.
#
#' @param DupMat The duplication matrix calculated by \code{analyzeDuprates}
#' @param stepSize Expression bin seze for the boxplot
#' @param ... Other params sent to boxplot
#' @return nothing
#' @examples
#' # dm is a duplication matrix calculated by analyzeDuprates:
#' # R> dm <- analyzeDuprates(bamDuprm,gtf,stranded,paired,threads)
#' attach(dupRadar_examples)

#' # duprate boxplot
