Program for creating language syntax/grammar “railroad” diagrams? [closed]
I'm looking for the program that JSON, SQLite and other projects are using to create the diagrams used for their language syntax, if there is a particular program. All of the diagrams have a similar style, with partially curved connections or arrows indicating flow.
There are some differences, making me wonder if it's a single program or just generic graphing tools used for a particular style.

The top one is from json.org and was drawn by Douglas Crockford using Visio. See stackoverflow.com/q/796824/477035 as in Chris W. Rea's answer.

As you can see by my edits to your question, the kind of syntax diagram you're referring to is also known as a railroad diagram. Wikipedia mentions a few tools under the "External Links" section, including:
EBNF Visualizer
Ebnf2ps: Peter's Syntax Diagram Drawing Tool
EBNF Parser & Syntax Diagram Renderer
SQLite bubble-generator.tcl
