You can see a quartered high or low if the winner of the high or low says [--Split--].

Scooping means winning the whole pot, either by (1) winning the low and the high, or (2) winning the high when there is no qualifying low, or (3) when everyone else folds.

In the first case, the hand history will say something like:
xxx wins $1 from the main pot with a flush
xxx wins lo ($1) from the main pot with 6,4,3,2,A

In the second case, it will say:
xxx wins $1 .....
There was no qualifying low hand.

In the third case, it will say:
xxx does not show cards
xxx wins $1 .....

Some people talk about a "3/4 scoop", when you win one way and split the pot the other way. Usually, this involves winning the high and splitting the low with another player. This is still a split pot, and not a scoop. In this case, the hand history will say:
xxx wins $2 .....
xxx wins lo ($1) .....
yyy wins lo ($1) .....
