In a previous post I suggested using imhangul rather than ibus in Lubuntu 13.10 because of issues with the latest version of ibus. imhangul has been working well for me, except for one problem: by default, the combination of the shift key and the space bar ( shift+space ) toggles the language input. This was a real pain as I often unintentionally hold down the shift key after typing capital letters. As a result, each time I wrote "I " it would switch to Korean. Super annoying.
Luckily, I finally came across a solution. Though imhangul seems not to have a way to modify its settings, you can do so by creating your own config file. This was my first time doing so (Ubuntu noob), and here's how I did so:
In your home directory ( /home/yourusername ) create a blank text file and name it .imhangul.conf (the initial dot is needed, as the file will be a hidden file).
Next, paste this text into the document:
Done.

# 상태창은 안보이게. imhangul의 상태창은 Nabi가 알아서 보여줌
enable_status_window = false
# Nabi에서 한영,한자키를 설정하고 그 이름을 그대로 아래 값으로 복사해 오면 됨.
# 한영키
hangul_keys = "Hangul", "<Shift>space", "Alt_R"
# 한자키
hanja_keys = "Hangul_Hanja", "F9", "Control_R"
Now you have a basic config file for imhangul. Because I don't want the shift+space combination toggling the language input, I just removed the
"<Shift>space",
Done.
