I copied verbatim the example found here:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Simple_Typescript_Example
This line caused an error:
\setupencoding[default=uc]
When I commented it out the doc ran fine.

These are instructions for MkII (and PostScript Type 1 fonts).
You are most likely running MkIV (with an Open Type version of
your font). How to write a typescript for OpenType Fonts is
explained in the manual:
http://context.aanhet.net/svn/contextman/context-reference/en/co-fonts.pdf
Btw. are you aware of Termes, which is an updated version of
Nimbus? It also comes bundled with and configured for Context.
Try
\setupbodyfont[termes,10pt]
\starttext whatever \stoptext
Regards
Philipp

Thanks for your help. I just spotted another somewhat comic error.
The typescript for Sans calls roman fonts and the typescript for
Roman calls sans fonts.

He’s referring to the wiki article cited earlier. Judging from
these lines:
\definefontsynonym [Serif] [name:nimbussanlregu]
<… />
\definefontsynonym [Sans] [name:nimbusromno9lregu]
it appears to be the case -- I don’t have the Nimbus fonts so I
can’t verify.
