Notes.app shows up as ? when added through dockutil #89

Hi there! First just wanted to say that I love this tool and you've done an amazing job with it.

For some reason, when I add the Notes.app to the dock through dockutil it shows up as missing. I have to manually remove the question mark and add Notes in its place. This is of course not ideal.

I'm adding Notes using dockutil as so:

dockutil --add /Applications/Notes.app

Any ideas? Thanks and happy new years!

Try this.

dockutil --add "/System/Applications/Notes.app"

Apple applications are starting to move to /System/Applications instead of leaving them in /Applications

Edit: This is a macOS Catalina change.

That worked! Thanks for the assistance! (I am on Catalina)
