I have a directory of 300 xml files each with a string that needs to be replaced… Is there a way to “Find/Replace in File” for all files in this directory without having Sublime open 300 tabs?
Too many tabs opening with Find/Replace in Files

For clarification, the behavior I am looking for is to just have it prompt me “Replace X occurrences in 300 files” and when I hit ok, it would just replace the strings without opening all the files in tabs.

If you make that folder into a “Project” by selecting the folder and from the menu ‘Project’ – ‘Save Project as…’ then you can perform actions upon all those files at once.
Although it might require you installing an additional package, I can’t remember if this comes from the default program or not. At any rate installing “Find++” gives a much better result to the editing process, IMO.
So, yes. You can replace ALL the instances of the desired text at once without opening each file separately.
