Hi All

M-x grep-find can help us to list all matched strings, and we can easily
jump to the original files.
How can we achieve this, after marking several files in dired-mode?

I have searched for some time.
M-x dired-do-search is quite close.
However it seems only be able to switch among matched strings, rather than
listing all matched string.

Any suggestion is welcome.

I'm not sure what you're asking, but it sounds like you want to grep the files
that are marked in Dired.

If so, then `M-g' (command `diredp-do-grep') is what you want. You'll find it in
Dired+.
