Documented in ct.CAT

##' @title Compare Two CRISPR Screens via a CAT plot 
##' @description This is a function for comparing the results of two screening experiments. Given two \code{summaryDF}, 
##' the function places them in register with one another, generates a Concordance At The Top (CAT) plot, and returns an 
##' invisible dataframe containing the relevant gene-level signals. Signals are aggregated by P-value threshold, such 
##' that the concordance is represented as the portion of shared values meeting or exceeding that significance threshold.
##' 
##' This function is conceptually similar to the `ct.ROC` and `ct.PRC()` functions, but is appropriate when considering 
##' consistency of ranked values rather than an interchangeable set; the most common use case is for comparing primary 
##' and replication screens, where the underlying technology and selection criteria are expected to be highly similar. 
##' CAT plots are fundamentally about comparing rankings, and so only targets in common between the two provided 
##' screens are considered. If the totality of list overlap is important, consider using `ct.PRC()` or `ct.ROC()`.
##'
##' @param dflist A list of results dataframes. Names will be preserved, and the enrichment calculation is conditioned on 
##' the first element of the list.
##' @param targets Column of the provided \code{summaryDF} to consider. Must be \code{geneID} or \code{geneSymbol}.
##' @param switch.dir Logical indicating whether to test overlap of signals in the same direction, or whether the 
##' directionality is expected to reverse. `same.dir = FALSE` looks at the consistency between depleted signals in `df1` and 
##' enriched signals in `df2`.
##' @param plot.it Logical indicating whether to compose the plots on the default device. Two CAT plots summarizing overlap in 
##' both enrichment directions are drawn. 
##' @return Invisibly, a data.frame containing the relevant summary stats for each target in both screens.
