I want to use a plugin to make most of my models inline editable, but I don't understand the following:
To use it, include jquery.rest_in_place.js in your template and execute the following in your document’s onLoad handler:
jQuery(".rest_in_place").rest_in_place();

Where do I place this?
They likely mean the jQuery document ready event.
Inside your <head> section, place a $(document).ready(); like this.
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery(".rest_in_place").rest_in_place();
});
</script>
</head>
Or
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function() {
jQuery(".rest_in_place").rest_in_place();
});
</script>
</head>
The author probably meant the jQuery ready handler which gets executed when the DOM (hierarchical structure of the document) is fully loaded.
Your JavaScript code should look as follows
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".rest_in_place").rest_in_place();
});
Note that $ is a synonym for jQuery (unless you explicitly enable the compatibility mode).
