Hmm...I understand your difficulty --- they certainly haven't made it
easy or obvious! My first guess (and this might look crazy, but it
should work) is to do this:

% cd zen-cart-v1.2.1-patch1
% tar cf - . | ( cd /path/to/installed/zen-cart-v1.2.1d/ && tar xf - )
% cd ..
% rm -r zen-cart-v1.2.1-patch1

The /path/to/installed/zen-cart-v1.2.1d/ is the one that contains
INSTALL.TXT and index.php.

Note: this is based on the comment in the readme.txt file that says "The
files above can be considered as replacements for the original files in
your v1.2.1 release." I hope I have not misunderstood.
