Global Search and Replace Without Opening Buffers

I'm wondering if it's possible to do a "Search and Replace" in a directory without having jEdit open a buffer with the files matching the search criteria.
I'm looking for a way to do a "silent" search and replace where jEdit will make the changes, and save the file, all without opening a buffer (which it's currently doing).
In my case, i have a good 30 files with the matching criteria so when I do a "search and replace" in a directory this opens up 30 buffers.
