Hi Ramon,

I think this is the same problem I had with the OS X graphical diff.

The issue seemed to be that the graphical diff's launch binary would  
start the graphical diff application proper, and then exit, at which  
point fossil would delete them. The diff application proper would then  
finish launching and look for the files given to it by the launch  
application, only to find that they don't exist.

I found that if I left the graphical diff application running, it  
would have time to read the files given to it by the launch binary.  
Far from a perfect solution, but perhaps it'll get you by (if that is  
the problem at all).

Cheers,
        Benjohn
