Error dialog
SUMMARY
When running kdiff3 from the command line it will always fail to immediately
open the diff and issue an error dialog saying the second file cannot be
opened.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Execute kdiff3 from the command line with 2 or 3 file arguments.
2. Observe an error dialog that says "Opening of these files
failed:\nfile2.txt"
3. Click 'OK'
4. All files are correctly populated in the file selection dialog.
5. Click 'OK'
6. The files are correctly shown in the diff GUI.
OBSERVED RESULT
The diff is not immediately shown when executed from the command line and you
must click through several dialogs to get the diff shown.
EXPECTED RESULT
The diff of the files should be directly shown in the GUI.
