I avoid problems by working in Vim. I use some external tool to generate a list of files I want to diff, then paste it into a temporary buffer in Vim. Either the external tool or a Vim script massages the list to come up with text like this:

:tabe new1.txt
:vert diffs old1.txt
:tabe new2.txt
:vert diffs old2.txt
:tabe new3.txt
:vert diffs old3.txt

With the cursor in that, the following copies and executes it:
