Pretty sure it was not long after Velious launched, or maybe even before - they added the /hitsmode command to the UI. It gave you a CLI method to move combat spam out of your main window and into a new window that you could define. You had to define the x and y coordinates, maybe width and height, and how abbreviated you wanted the text to be... e.g. the full 'You pierce a tundra kodiak for 40 points of damage.' could be shortened to 'Pierce tundra kodiak for 40', or even just '40'.
edit: hmmm... Monkly Business post puts it in the vicinity of 3/21/2002
