When you start your script, you should detach it from the console so that when you log out the process continues running: The following runs a REBOL script in the background (&) and redirects stdout and stderr to the null device (1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null) so no output remains directed at the console. %./fakenews.r & 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null Try that and see if it solves your problem.
