https://github.com/protz/gpgfox/blob/0d2fb7c0e207c8a76def0d87b0888b759b2f6ffe/lib/gpg.js#L100
 
has an example of how to use the subprocess.call function, assuming 
you've properly done the Components.utils.import(...) call. But all of 
those requirements are properly detailed at 
http://hg.mozilla.org/ipccode/file/b3725e9efa10/modules/subprocess.jsm#l39 
and the library is really easy to use. Maybe what you're missing is 
some background on what a JSM is. If that is the case, I suggest 
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/JavaScript_code_modules 
as a starting point.

The tests for the library itself need to simulate calling a binary 
process. Therefore, there is a little bit of compilation involved, but 
that is not relevant to what you need to do as a client of the library.

Hope that helps,
