# Gimp.PlugIn.prototype.persistent_process

    function persistent_process(timeout: Number(guint)): void {
        // Gjs wrapper for gimp_plug_in_persistent_process()
    }

Processes one message sent by GIMP and returns.

Call this function in an endless loop after calling [method@Gimp.Procedure.persistent_ready] to process requests for running temporary procedures.

See [method@PlugIn.persistent_enable] for an asynchronous way of doing the same if running an endless loop is not an option.

See also: [method@PlugIn.add_temp_procedure].
