There's now a facility for viewing diffs in an external viewer.  If
you do Edit->Preferences and set the "External diff tool" thing to
tkdiff, then you can right-click on a file name in the file list
(bottom right-hand pane) and select "External diff" and it will launch
tkdiff to show you the diffs for that file.

What is it you like about tkdiff?  Is it the side-by-side display, or
the highlighting of differences within a line, or the merge facility?

Paul.
