Parted

GNU Parted is a partition editor. With parted you can create new partitions and change the size of existing partitions for a number of file systems (see this list.

Parted has been split in a CLI editor and a library to make it easier to create alternative interfaces. Several GUI font-ends have been made for this:

• QtParted -- Based on the Qt GUI libraries (NOTE: does not seem to be in modern Debian/Ubuntu repositories. Is this still supported?)
• GParted -- Based on the GTK GUI libraries
