External diffs and temp files

Hello,
I am working with subversion on a debian platform.
I am trying to use either vimdiff or meld as a diff tool.
So I created a script containing either /usr/bin/vimdiff $6 $7 or
/usr/bin/meld $6 $7.

Everything works fine except that $7 is actually a temp file, and when I
am done changing the file, the tempfile is saved, but the actual working
copy has not been modified.

The only similar topic I could find was this one:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/396176/why-does-svn-diff-sometimes-copy-working-files-to-a-temp-file

However, I don't have any keywords or any of the kind.

Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

Ruben
