in enco-def.tex this is
\definecharacter textbraceleft {\mathematics{\{}}
which means wrapping {\tt ...} around it doesn't give a teletyped brace
but a nice mathematics one.

This doesn't seem to work well inside a table:
! Missing { inserted.
<inserted text>
{
<to be read again>
&
\normalTABLEquote ->\unskip \!ttRightGlue &
\omit \tablepos &
\NC ...rentTABLEcolumn \plusone \normalTABLEquote
\fi
l.754 \NC
\type{|} \NC $\}$ \NC \type{~} \NC {\tt DEL} \NC\AR
?
where my .tex source reads:
\NC 120 \NC \type{x} \NC \type{y} \NC \type{z} \NC \type-{-
\NC \type{|} \NC $\}$ \NC \type{~} \NC {\tt DEL} \NC\AR

It would be great if one could get the second version (\type-{-) working
inside a table, as this is the prettier solution.
Currently I just did my own
\definecharacter textbraceleft 123
(which some of the other enco-*.tex files did) for this and wrapped that
inside a {\tt ...}:
{\tt \textbraceleft}
Anyway, thanks for the suggestions,
nikolai
P.S.
Here's a small testfile:
\starttext
\starttable[|c|]
\NC \type-{- \NC\AR
\stoptable
\stoptext
