The ability to dynamically resize partitions is a native function of the
Apple supplied 'diskutil' command line tool.

why bother - soccoord

I wish it were true that Diskutil supported dynamic partition resizing. But it does not. man diskutil says for partitioning "All volumes on this disk will be destroyed."

We had the ability to resize disk partitions in OS9, but not OS X. So I was hoping VolumeWorks would do this. But no. I found it quite worthless as it did not show my hard drive at all. It only showed some .dmg partitions that I had mounted.
