Hi,

Here is a patch to gitk that allows to run an external diff viewer.
It can be configured in Edit/Preferences/External diff tool.

To see the diff between two files:
- select revisions to diff
- right click on a file in the patched files list view
- choose "External diff"

Any feedback is welcome.

Various combinations of showing diffs between index, work tree, and  
commits
work for me.  I haven't yet found any problems.
