elisp:
(mapcar
(lambda (x)
(let ((k (car x)) (v (cdr x)))
(if (eq 'perl-mode v)
(cons k 'cperl-mode)
x)))
'(("foo" . bar)
("perl" . perl-mode)
("perl5" . perl-mode)
("miniperl" . perl-mode)
("whiz" . bang)))
===>
(("foo" . bar) ("perl" . cperl-mode) ("perl5" . cperl-mode)
("miniperl" . cperl-mode) ("whiz" . bang))
