For diffing, difftools sounds like a good option.  You should try it,
and see if it 'just works'.

For merging, you probably want to let bzr handle files that merge
cleanly, and run a script afterward to merge the files that had conflicts.

When a conflict occurs, bzr dumps copies of the three versions it tried
to merge as 'foo.THIS', 'foo.BASE' and 'foo.OTHER'.  You can run AM
against those files.
