Versions of TIC are available as shareware.  Copies are exist
on Apple BBS's practically everywhere.  The best way to get the
information you're asking about would be to get a copy and try
it.

I've taken a look at TIC.  It supports XModem, Ymodem, the United
Software (AE Pro) "ProDOS" superset of XModem, Xmodem/CRC and
maybe a variant or two I've forgotten (no Kermit as of the last
time I looked).  VT52, ADM3A, Televideo 9xx, and maybe a few other
terminal types are supported (not ANSI -- VT10x as far as I know).

TIC has a VERY GOOD script (macro) language and the program is easy to use
(pretty intuitive actually).  //e (even the older not enhanced version),
//c, and IIgs are supported, BUT the modem must either be attached
through a IIgs internal port or a SSC (or clone) in slot 2 that
supports interrupts (if you have a Microtek 622C as I do you either
have to risk modifying the board, replace it, or use other software).

NOTE: I'm sending a copy of this mail to Don Elton (the author of
TIC): delton@pro-carolina.cts.com, ...ihnp4!pro-carolina!delton

I don't know if he still reads comp.sys.apple (he hasn't posted in
awhile), but my experience has been that he will answer his email.
You may find it helpful to contact Don directly.
