Disable print pretty in gdb

I'm aware that we can enable pretty printing in gdb set print pretty. But is there an unset? I sometimes would like to toggle it. I couldn't find any documentation of it not any answers in Stackoverflow.

For newer versions of gdb ( currently using gdb 9.1 ) this did not work any longer. We have to use:

> disable pretty-printer 

See gdb doc

Use

set print pretty off 

From documentation:

set print pretty on
Cause GDB to print structures in an indented format with one member per line, like this:

$1 = { next = 0x0, flags = { sweet = 1, sour = 1 }, meat = 0x54 "Pork" } 

set print pretty off
Cause GDB to print structures in a compact format, like this:

$1 = {next = 0x0, flags = {sweet = 1, sour = 1}, \ meat = 0x54 "Pork"} 

This is the default format.
